Mrs Depew Vintage

 

This is a digital, print-at-home sewing pattern reproduction of an incredible 1927 couture evening gown. The original pattern was designed by famed couture house Agnès-Drecoll.

This wonderful design features two versions that can be sewn with long short, puffed sleeves or sleeveless. The front has a deep v-neck and a vestee insert that can be made from lace or contrasting fabric. The skirt is longer at back than at front (and can be faced on contrasting colors!) and joins the bodice at a geometric point at the hips. The back has an amazing optional detail for a diagonal neckline.



If made from light cottons, it can also be worn as a day dress.

Difficulty Level: Intermediate/ advanced
