Pattern Description:

This is a digital sewing pattern for a lovely draped night gown or neglige from 1932. The pattern for two different versions was originally published for the newspaper column of a "Fashion Expert". I have digitally enhanced the images but the instructions are the exact wordings used by the original designer. The grammar and writing style tells me that the "Fashion Expert" was most likely a French woman writing in English.

It is not necessary to print this pattern. The "Pattern" given is a very easy to follow set of instructions for cutting and draping a certain measurement of fabric with several drawings and diagrams.

Difficulty level: Easy.

Note: This pattern is based off of a real 1930's pattern that is in the public domain. However, the pattern and its instructions have been adapted and translated for the 21st century seamstress creating a new and original work.
