Pattern Description

Step into the golden age of fashion with this exquisite 1950s sewing pattern, inspired by the iconic elegance of Dior's New Look. The full-length, button-up design features a chic inset band at the center front, echoing the era’s focus on feminine silhouettes and structured detail.

A waist-length bodice flows into a generously gathered skirt, celebrating the hourglass shape that defined postwar glamour. The low, rounded neckline graces both the front and back, adding a whisper of sophistication. Choose between three-quarter length or short sleeves to suit your mood—either way, you'll embody the grace and drama of mid-century couture.
