I haven't tried it, but it sure is a cutie. I think I've seen the original it was based off off floating around but it usually goes for quite a pretty penny.
Evadress also has a sarong dress pattern in multisize.
Great photo, Cherry Lips.
I was at Target and flipped through the current Vogue magazine issue and saw a feature on trousers that look VERY similar to 1930s and 1940s trousers. I don't remember what the segment was called, but I found the photos pretty inspring. There's another shoot in...
Thanks for posting those, Tourbillion! The second image is exactly the one I was thinking of but couldn't remember who it was or where I had seen it. Thanks!
Oops! I meant to say late 30s for jersey, not late 40s! Haha.
Interesting thoughts. I know I've seen lots of pictures of my grandpa wearing white t shirts with slacks in the 1940s and later. Seems to sort of been his "look", but I don't have photos of women wearing t shirts that I'm aware of...
I'm not actually sure. I know I've seen pictures of women wearing t-shirt like tops in the 30s (especially striped) but I think they're more like thin knitwear than t-shirts. I know jersey was a popular fabric and I've seen dresses and tops made from it starting in the late 40s, but most were...
I find their clothing very beautiful. When I get an occasion to buy a new dress I'd love one of theirs.
Does anyone know, where is the clothing made? I don't see anything about it on their site.
Thanks, Idledame! You know, I didn't even notice the stripes until you pointed it out! lol! That is all kinds of awesome. I'll have to track down a suitable fabric :) And many thanks on the sewing compliment!!
Thanks, gals! They're so fun! I can't wait to make them up, especially when summer rolls around :) I have some denim nearly the color of the sailor jumpsuit so I think I'll make that one up in that.
Land-O-Lakes gal, They're both one piece outfits, kinda like jump suits, I guess. I was...
Lovely patterns, ladies! Kamikat, love the top one especially!
Here's some patterns I added to my stash :) Now... just to find the time to sew... I feel like I haven't made myself something in forever, though I know it really hasn't been that long.
This is me today. I was testing the timer on my camera so have my serious face on. lol.
This is at Leo Carrillo's Ranch, which is a city park now. Pretty nifty place.
These days I suppose I'm more vintage inspired or reproduction. I don't buy much vintage clothing anymore at all (excluding hats, accessories, and patterns). I've weaned my "collection" down quite a bit over the years by selling things that don't fit anymore or styles that I wasn't as keen on...
So cool, Amy Jeanne! Thanks so much for sharing!
Funny, I was talking with my grandma tonight about the same thing about safety and friendliness... she didn't lock her car or door either.
