$125.00
This pattern from 1969 offers a choice to order a button up blouse, a vest/waistcoat or bell bottom pants. The blouse is a traditional button up with a unique extended oblong collar. It has no darts and is meant to be blousy. It has optional front bust pockets. The sleeves are long and full with frilled cuffs sewn with elastic for easy on and off. It is unlined.
The vest is dart fitted in the front but not the back. It has no closures and is meant to be worn open. It has pockets and is fully lined. The pattern suggest trimming it with sequins, braid or perhaps fringe?
The bell bottom pants/trousers hit at the natural waist. They are fitted in the hips and thighs but super full at the hem. They are dart fitted but have no waistband (they have a waist facing instead) I can make them zip on the side or in the back. The pattern suggests trim along the cuffs such as sequins, braid or decortive buttons to be sewn on the bottom side seams. The pants are unlined.
These 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 for the blouse- soft cottons, voile, organza, satin, organdy, dotted swiss, challis, crepe, matelasse or metallic lame.
For the vest and pants- denim, chino, velvet, velveteen, satin, moire, linen, hopsack, pique, gabardine and double knits.
