This princess-seamed bathing suit is secured with a slide fastener (zipper) closing in back. The bra section gathers to the underarm bands at the sides and ties into a knot at the center front. The suit is lined and finished with trunks. The flared-back coat, seamed down the center back, buttons at the neck. patch pockets, a wing collar and long, cuffed sleeves finish the coat. This bathing suit could be lengthened a bit to make a fantastic pin-up style dress!
This vintage printed pattern was never used and is still factory folded. The pattern tissue is in excellent like-new condition, with just a bit of age browning on one side. The 2-page instruction sheets contains detailed illustrations, full cutting layouts, and step-by-step sewing instructions and is also in excellent condition. The colors are bright on the front cover illustration, but the envelope is brittle with tattering and a bit missing at the lower left corner.
