#3301 1933 Evening Gown

Get ready for 1930s Hollywood! You are looking at the reason why we love vintage patterns! This fabulous vintage pattern is from 1933. It is a wonderful evening gown that could easily be adapted into a wedding gown.

The side skirt piece is cut to take advantage of bias drape. The back is low cut but not too daring. We were able to find a "convertible" bra at a major department store that worked fine with the finished dress. The front neckline is a flattering V-neck with a triangular cut out for added glamour.

The fit is what you might expect. There is 4 of ease at the bust but only 3 of ease at the hips. Lightweight or dress weight fabrics with a nice drape would be appropriate. Bodice is self lined and the skirt is fully lined.
