Green patterns!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love that type of dress. I can just see Miss Katherine Hepburn wearing a dress like that.

Very pretty dress. The price was surprising, but even more surprising was seeing at the bottom that its sold out. Good luck in trying to find something similar.

Wow - that looks a lot like the pattern for my wedding dress. I got it off past patterns or patterns from the past, can't remember which. My mom made it for me, it was a 1930s wedding dress pattern - anyhow, both those sites have some good resources.

What a fun pattern ! They have a variety of stuff to see (LH column...), but, Yes, pricey. Interesting site, tho.

Print a copy of the pattern, sit down at the pattern counter of a fabric store and study the books. You can duplicate this by breaking it down into components. There's a long six gore skirt, and a fitted bodice with puffy sleeves. A lot of current skirt patterns have flounces. You might be able to find something with the curved yoke in a nightgown or a shirt pattern. You can use different patterns, as long as they meet at key points.

Ohh ya...it's beautiful! I don't believe I've ever seen a pattern that was that pricey though.

You can sometimes find these patterns on e-bay in the vintage patterns section. Usually pretty reasonably priced
