Women's Sizes XS-2XL

Although the fashions of the 1910-12 incorporated a new straight, slim silhouette as a departure from the Edwardian S-curve and full, swishing skirts, there seemed to be a reluctance to abandon the lovely lacy detailing of that earlier period.  This type of dress was sometimes referred to as a "Lingerie Dress" on account of the sheer, white delicacy of the fabric and trim with which it was made.

The bodice of our sewing patter for the Garden Party Dress reflects the less constricting tailoring of the post-Edwardian era.  Soft gathers below a square yoke and at the waist provide a comfortable fit.  Two wide flanges emphasize the princess line.  These were typically made of lace or eyelet as in View B.

View A, our contemporary interpretation, has a self-bias bound jewel neckline, self-fabric flanges, and a gathered mid-calf length dirndl skirt.  View, B, the traditional version, has a lowered square neckline.  The ankle-length skirt is darted into the waistline for a very flattering, slimming fit;  purchased lace or eyelet on the flanges, cuffs, front yoke, and back add elegance and femininity.  Both views feature three-quarter length sleeves eased into wide below-the-elbow cuffs and a buttoned center back opening.  

The straight cut of the skirt makes this dress a natural for border prints and eyelet.

This sewing pattern is available as a paper pattern or a PDF pattern.  Choose the format you want in the drop down menu.  The PDF pattern has files for instructions, print at home, and copy shop versions.

Suggested Fabrics:  Soft, sheer to lightweight fabrics such as cotton batiste, voile, lawn, gauze, or eyelet; rayon challis; silks; wool challis or blends.

Adorable. When my 3 boys miss their daddy while he's at work, its really nice to have this book! Especially for my 3 year old. Its nice to know daddies have important jobs & that they're not the only kids waiting for their daddy to come home. It's also nice to reassure them that daddy can't wait to see them either! Sweet, nostalgic pictures. Love it.

A classic reclaimed!
This classic Little Golden Book was my first "favorite book" as a little girl of four years who adored her daddy. Knowing full well that copy didn't survive the 60 plus years that have passed, I was elated to find it still in print. I found I still knew many pages by heart! My goal is to read it unendingly to a grandson who adores his daddy. Though the pictures are dated, and some of the occupations don't exist anymore, the love and respect a hard-working family man deserves is still well communicated--and the love of a child for it's father is still lovingly affirmed. I'm delighted with my purchase!

A childhood favorite
Format: Hardcover
I used to read this book over and over. I bought it for someone recently and re-read it with many tears. It's a real Golden classic! It's wholesome, cute, funny, and familial. Kids AND adults will love reading it. Plus, it transports you back to the 50s!

Just fine
Format: Hardcover
This was a good book. My husbands job doesn't really fit into any of the categories, it's very basic normal man jobs, so any job out of the ordinary won't be present in the book. Still a cute book with a good ending :)

Such a sweet, nostalgic story! Katie the Kitten is adorable, with charming illustrations and a gentle tale kids love. A timeless Little Golden Book that’s just as lovely as I remembered.
