WWII Overalls

in Vintage Sewing

I just got the most lovely pattern in the mail for the perfect “Working for Victory” WWII style overalls.
I just thought I’d share it with you all. It’s such a perfect example of an outfit that says, “I can do a man’s job, and still look like a lady doing it.”

You can read more at my blog A Few Threads Loose.
Happy Friday!

I really need a pattern like this. I have to wear long pants at work (a factory environment that builds commercial airplanes), and I would love to have a retro/vintage alternative to jeans.

And there's a cute sun-suit view, for days off!

That is a great pattern! I love the bib. Can't wait to see what you sew up with it!
