For the Mature Woman!
This pattern is proof that the 20s wasn't just for teenage waifs. The original for this one had a 52" bust. Based on an original pattern "for Mature Figures" from the late 1920s, this asymmetrically-seamed wrap-top dress with grown-on sleeves has a hidden underbody for smooth figure control. An elegant look in a day dress suitable for every body. The diagonal skirt seams are very typical of 1928-29.
