11-piece pattern originally by Butterick. Known for its full, dropped waist skirt at a time of popular straight-cut dresses, this Robe de Style pattern comes with pieces and instructions to make the paniers (to go under the dress), as well as, the bows, fabric flowers and leaves for embellishment. There are two options for cutting the front neckline and three options for cutting the back neckline. I have added a page as a light tutorial on making 1920’s ribbon leaves.
3/4" seams are given at underarm (all side) and shoulder seams and 3/8" seams are given on all other edges.
There is an over-lap in the size sets for this design:
Size set A fitting 14-20 (32" to 38" bust, 26" to 32" waist, 34" to 40" hip).
Size set B fitting 40-46 (40" to 46" bust, 34" to 40" waist, 42" to 48" hip).
Size set C fitting 44-50 (44" to 50" bust, 38" to 44" waist, 46" to 52" hip).
This pattern was graciously made available to the EvaDress collection by Charity Armstead, Associate Professor, Fashion Programs Director at Brenau University!
