E50-1026; 1951 Evening Gown

16-piece digitally-drafted pattern originally by Modes Royale, 'A dramatic, strapless gown with a fabulously-draped tunic over-skirt'.

The long, boned bodice joins to skirt at high hip with upper and lower trim pieces for accent.  The tunic over-skirt is self-faced, or you may even want to face it in contrast!

5/8" seams are given at all underarm (side) seams and 1/2" seams are given on all other edges.

You see Annabelle from Dark Garden Corsetry wearing one of her corsets with the skirt/over-skirt component from this pattern! (We think you could similarly shape the bodice to create a sweetheart neckline, as she is wearing too!) 

Sizes:

Size set A fitting 12-20 (30" to 38" bust, 25-1/2" to 32" waist, 33" to 41" hip).

Size set B fitting 40-46 (40" to 46" bust, 34" to 40" waist, 43" to 49" hip).
