I’m slowly trying to build a wardrobe of ‘wearable’ vintage clothing from the 1940s-early 1950s (SewRetro is great for inspiration).
I love this look, its so cute and practical:
And here’s my version:
I used my favourite 1940’s blouse pattern (Smooth Sailing from Wearing History) and the Simplicity Repro 3688 for the skirt.
The blouse is made from a repro-print quilters cotton, with vintage buttons – the skirt is a very functional navy gaberdine.
Thanks for looking! xxx
