1942 Dress 96 cm or 108 cm (37.8" or 42.5") bust

Also available as a PDF pattern

A classic early 1940s design. This great design has gathered panels on the bodice and skirt, which lend themselves to contrasting colour and fabric-texture blocking. The fitted waist has a buttoned front opening and is pictured with a fabric tie-belt at the waist. The skirt also has an inverted pleat at the centre back, which overall gives the skirt some flare.
