Excellent pattern for vintage costumes

The pattern is very easy to use, easy for an intermediate beginner. He has many costume options so you can make him whatever you want. It requires quite a bit of fabric, concept, and embellishment. But if you are thinking of buying ready made suits of the same style, they can cost up to $400. Take your time, READ the instructions, follow the pattern and you will have priceless costumes and prom dresses. I have already made 3 different dresses in 3 different styles from the same pattern.

Pros
  • The bodice of the dress has a lined bodice with a deep square neckline, a peplum, a stripe on the back with an openwork lace or ribbon, and the skirt is finished with a detachable train, a ruffle and a ruched lace-up closure at back.
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something

It will even make a fantastic two piece wedding dress.

My daughter wanted me to use this pattern to make her a vampire costume for Halloween. This is a very versatile pattern - you can create many different looks depending on the fabric and finish. You can even make an amazing two piece 'wedding dress' out of it. I haven't finished her costume yet, but I'll try to remember to upload some photos. I really wish this pattern (or something similar) came in kid sizes as I have to make a lot of adjustments to it to fit my 7- summer.

Pros
  • Whether it's Halloween, a themed party, a historical re-enactment or even a theatrical performance, this beautifully detailed costume is the perfect choice.
Cons
  • Quick Instructions

Fancy pattern, not for beginners

This is a whimsical pattern. You have to buy a lot more finishes than indicated on the box. I used over 10 yards, not 7. Fabric count was accurate, no issues. The pattern is SMALL. I had to do the sleeves 6 times before they were right. The sleeves are also Anne Boleyn sleeves and quite heavy. You might want to consider making the sleeves out of gauze instead of the heavy fabrics offered. The pattern calls for hooks and loops, but you'll use loops instead. Another quirk. If you've never sewn a…

Pros
  • Ladies pattern can be made in sizes 6, 8, 10 and 12.
Cons
  • Pleated
