1933 Katharine Hepburn Ensemble D30-5156PR (Multi-size)
D30-5156PR; 1933 Katharine Hepburn Ensemble (Multi-size)
11-piece pattern originally by Butterick is a very scarce pattern for Howard Greer's design for a costume as worn by Miss Hepburn in an R.K.O. Radio Picture', being her first starring role in 'Christopher Strong'.
The ensemble consists of the pleated hat, one-piece dress and jacket with long or short cut-away sleeves and attached scarf that laps over the front to close the jacket with buttons.
3/4" seams are given at underarm (all side) seams and 3/8" seams are given on all other edges.
