Women's Sizes XS-2XL

Although the fashions of the 1910-12 incorporated a new straight, slim silhouette as a departure from the Edwardian S-curve and full, swishing skirts, there seemed to be a reluctance to abandon the lovely lacy detailing of that earlier period.  This type of dress was sometimes referred to as a "Lingerie Dress" on account of the sheer, white delicacy of the fabric and trim with which it was made.

The bodice of our sewing patter for the Garden Party Dress reflects the less constricting tailoring of the post-Edwardian era.  Soft gathers below a square yoke and at the waist provide a comfortable fit.  Two wide flanges emphasize the princess line.  These were typically made of lace or eyelet as in View B.

View A, our contemporary interpretation, has a self-bias bound jewel neckline, self-fabric flanges, and a gathered mid-calf length dirndl skirt.  View, B, the traditional version, has a lowered square neckline.  The ankle-length skirt is darted into the waistline for a very flattering, slimming fit;  purchased lace or eyelet on the flanges, cuffs, front yoke, and back add elegance and femininity.  Both views feature three-quarter length sleeves eased into wide below-the-elbow cuffs and a buttoned center back opening.  

The straight cut of the skirt makes this dress a natural for border prints and eyelet.

This sewing pattern is available as a paper pattern or a PDF pattern.  Choose the format you want in the drop down menu.  The PDF pattern has files for instructions, print at home, and copy shop versions.

Suggested Fabrics:  Soft, sheer to lightweight fabrics such as cotton batiste, voile, lawn, gauze, or eyelet; rayon challis; silks; wool challis or blends.

Runs way too small
Color: Black, Size: Medium
If you live in the U.S. and wear medium, a large will fill you perfectly. I wear large and the “large” is objectively a medium in the chest arms and neck. Fix your sizes.

Looks Sharp! Stiff, Balloon Comfort!
Color: Black, Size: XX-Large
I purchased the PJ PAUL JONES Men's Oxford Button-Down Shirt as a gift, and it comes with a mix of strengths and trade-offs. The buttons are plentiful and high quality, and the inclusion of a couple of spare buttons is a thoughtful touch. The color is a deep, rich shade just as I hoped, giving the shirt a sharp, professional appearance. The fabric has a noticeable texture that looks like cotton, but the heavier thread count gives it a sturdier, more rugged feel, (almost outdoorsy) rather than the soft, premium cotton I expected. My biggest concern is that it may feel scratchy against the skin and less comfortable for long hours of wear. The shirt is also quite boxy in shape, with little to no side curve, which limits ease of movement and can cause it to crease or untuck when bending or sitting. Overall, it’s a durable, well-constructed shirt with a polished look, but comfort and fit may be an issue if you prefer softer fabric and a more tailored, flexible cut.
