The sweet style of this little dress is reminiscent of the 1950s. Little girls in Bobbie socks and women in nylons wore dresses just like these, with their wide skirts and fitted waistlines. For a more casual look, the dresses had plain sleeves and pointed collars, and as formal wear they were sleeveless and collarless.
The Flossie Potter "Little '50s Dress" PDF sewing pattern shows you how to copy the cover designs, but there's no limit to what your own imagination can do! Sew it up for collectors and little girls, alike!
The pattern has 23 pages of detailed step-by-step instructions with full-color photos, 8 pages of printable summary instructions (to save on printer ink!), and 4 pages of full-sized pattern pieces.
