New lingerie pattern!
This is a digital, print-at-home sewing pattern for late 1920s to early 1930s bandeau bra and step-in panties. They can be made in light-weight non-stretch fabrics like silk and cotton for the perfect art-deco undergarment.
The bandeau bra has gathers at center front and self fabric or ribbon straps. Ready made straps would also work great. The back may be closed with a pair of buttons, snaps, or a purchased bra back closure. The step-in panties have a yoke at center front and are cut loose with a slight flare to the leg. The crotch is finished with a simple seam (no gusset).
The lower edge is finished with bias, lace trim, or a narrow hem.
