Past Patterns 3973 - Early 1900s Tunic Overblouse Sewing Pattern bust 32"-48"

Description: Past Patterns PP#3973Early 1900s Tunic Overblouse Sewing Pattern This Early 1900s Tunic Overblouse Sewing Pattern was originally published by The Ladies Home Journal magazine ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Ladies' Tunic Overblouse pattern was advertised in the September 1908 issue under the article, "For The Girl Who Makes Her Own Clothes." The article starts, "Something else we all need is a dress for evening wear. In the afternoon a waist [blouse] of silk crepon matching the color of our tailored suit is complete without a coat, but for evening we must have something light and pretty - and a lithe waist [blouse] and dark skirt will not do." The article suggests remodeling a dress and wearing the Tunic Overblouse over the dress, "for Afternoon and Evening Wear During the Winter." The model on the right shows the overdress with bound edges and buttons at the shoulders. Both views feature a rosette at the waist. Originally the pattern was described as "Ladies' Tunic Overblouse, Closed in the front; consisting of an overblouse, or jumper, joined to a four-gored tunic or overskirt, with [both] regulation or slightly Empire back. Tunic or overblouse section may be used separately. To be worn over princess and lingeries dresses or slips." 3 variations of the Ladies' Tunic Overblouse can be created from this pattern. ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Bust 32 ½ - 48 Waist 24 ½ - 40 Hips 34 ½ - 50 Designs are included for B, C & D cups ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Materials required in 45" width fabric with or without nap: Sizes 8-14 - 3-1/4 yds.

We do this with the hope that people will start creating and wearing reproductions instead of antique originals. The clothes we wear and that our grandparents wore are part of our cultural history. Just as you would not abuse antiques furniture by cutting off decorative trim, so you should not abuse antique garments by wearing them. Our second goal is that you pick up a little bit of history when you sew the garment. The fit, the cut, the fasteners, the fabric design, just to mention a few things, are part to the technology of the time. Our third goal, in sewing the patterns, is to spark an interest in genealogy and local history. Researching local history is always a rewarding pursuit. SKU 3973 Thanks for looking!
