I don't know if it helps but i have seen this one a few times in ebay

 

[Lorena B]

Im after any of these like maaaaaad!!!

 

[Lauren]

WOW. Ditto- especially the belted back jacket. Men's patterns are hard to find

 

[Lorena B]

Yes, they are and once you come across to then in auction sites, they go for far too much money that my pocket can scope.

 

[Lauren]

Yup. I really love the mens slacks pattern you posted that you got. I hadn't seen that one before. Great find!

 

[Hamilton_Honey]

Thanks from me too!

These patterns say sports bra, but I have made the front closing one out of tricot for a leisure bra.

Thanks Lady Day for asking and Kamikat for posting this - they also have a "classic" bra pattern available, which is what I have been looking for! Yay!

Uff Lauren, that took me ages to get despite it has crossed my path before, unfortunately, that time, the seller didn't want to send it out of the States and went to someone for a really low bid , anyway, if you persevere you get your reward and here it is this pants pattern to acknowledge it.

Could this be anymore fabulous?
I think not!

The pleated cape the cowl neck...*drool*

I'm not sure if this is the right place for this post or not. But does anyone know where I might be able to find a pattern for a wrap/sarong type dress? It can be vintage, repro, or modern with retro styling. I am dying to try my hand at one.

 

[SayCici]

You can check the usual places like Etsy and eBay but Eva Dress has a 50s sarong repro pattern.

 

[GrrlFriday]

Thanks, SayCici. I'd checked but not seen it before. Now, all I have to do is learn to grade the pattern up for my decidedly modern waistline.

In addition to the Eva dress pattern here's another...It's pricier but cheaper than you'll pay for vintage on ebay.

Oh, that bolero is super-cute. I kind of want both. Have you ordered from Scissorhappy before Jenniferose7? How are their patterns to work from?

I am not really into late 50's early 60's fashion and I don't have the figure for it but I am madly in love with this pattern. Last time I saw it on ebay it went for $150.

Oh wow! Just had to comment. Pauline Trigere' is one of my favs so I don't wonder that pattern goes for big $. She's really something else.

 

[Jenniferose7]

Grrl Friday, I have not tried the scissor happy pattern but I heard it's based off a vintage Butterick or McCalls sarong pattern. I'm debating picking it up myself.

here's a review of the sarong pattern that eva dress sells:
