1930 Dress, Slip, Coat & Hat SE30-3891

SE30-3891; 1930 Dress, Slip, Coat and Hat

15-piece pattern for the dress with optional slip, open coat and Newport-style hat.  

The coat (3-piece pattern) may be ordered as a separate.  The dress skirt may be accordion-pleated and comes with flounced slip (8-piece pattern) sold as a set, see options below.

I designed this pattern based on the color rendering originally sketched by a pattern company artist at a runway show in 1930.  The caption written on the original reads:

'Seen at the fashion show.  Coarse black net.  Black taffeta bands.'

NOTE: The dress, slip and coat are very close fitting at the hip (1" ease).  As I recommend with all of my patterns, ensure proper fit with a toile before cutting fashion fabric! 

This pattern is for the more advanced sewer as instructions are very basic and lightly illustrated, they are not depicted in a step-by-step manner.

3/8" seams are given.

Other recommended fabrics: Heavy crepe, heavy satin and 4-ply georgette, the slip may be made in charmeuse, light crepe or satin.

Size set A fits 14-20 (32" to 38" bust, 26" to 32" waist, 35" to 41" hip).

Size set B fits 40-46 (40" to 46" bust, 34" to 40" waist, 43" to 49" hip).
