My 1950s Patterns Pt. 1

In honor of the royal wedding, and Miss Middleton's fabulous 1950s style gown, I'm going to post up my 1950s patterns. The first one is practically a dead ringer...so when I get married I can have the same dress! Which ones would you make?

  1. Ooh, I'm a sucker for 50s dresses. My favourite is 10th down, Simplicity with yellow floral dress on left and blue version on right. Can you tell me what the number is, so I can put it on my wishlist?
    I did like the royal wedding dress but think I might be missing the bridal gene. I got married in a vintage 50s day dress :)

  3. Thanks for the pattern info Lisette! I love thinking about the history that a pattern might have had before it got to you.
