Butterick 7943

$250.00

This dress will be custom made for you using a vintage pattern dated 1956. It features 3/4 length or long sleeves and a bateau neckline with a slight cowl drape. The back bodice has a deep V neck. The skirt is either super full and pleated or a fitted pencil, your choice. I can make this with a side seam zipper as called for or move the zip to the center back for ease. This dress is unlined. It comes with either a plain belt or a cummerbund/obi style belt.

This listing is for an unlined dress. If you want this in either version with a liner message me for a price quote.

This dress will be custom made for you to your measurements. Since it is made to order I can make it out of any fabric and color you want. The pattern suggests quilt weight cottons, gingham, broadcloth, pique or taffeta. This would also be great in wool crepe, rayon crepe or stretch sateen. This outfit is so versatile though, it would look fab in almost any fabric really. Just let me know what you have in mind and I will find the right fabric for you.

Prices incude a budget of $12 per yard fabric max. If you want a more expensive fabric there will be an additional cost. Unsure about fabric and the total costs? Message me and we can discuss.

I will message you after the order is made and give you a list of measurements I will need to make your dream dress.

Since this is made to order please allow up to 14+ weeks for delivery.
