@mintjulepjazzband was selected as an 'EvaDress Pick' for $25 off at EvaDress for posting her gown from pattern NL40-5046, the 1940's Nightgown by Anne Cabot Mail Order Patterns  on InstaGram! She created a gown of 'relevant sweets' in a Candyland theme for Camp Hollywood this past fall, yet she so perfectly suits holiday in her lovely look!

The overalls/trousers (8-piece pattern) may be ordered without the blouse and the blouse (7-piece pattern) may be ordered as a separate, see options.
