Anne Adams 4560
Mail Order Pattern
Misses' Sheath Dress
Size 14 Bust 32
ca. 1955
A smart and versatile 1950s sheath dress with a button-through front, high stand collar and distinctive squared armhole shaping. The fitted bodice is cinched at the waist before falling into a slender skirt, while angular hip pockets emphasise the beautifully tailored silhouette. The pattern offers both short and three-quarter-length sleeves.
A contemporary November 1955 advertisement promoted the design as a versatile, modern-looking sheath, particularly highlighting its squared armholes and squared hip pockets, and suggested faille, wool jersey or winter cotton.
Unprinted pattern. Pattern has been checked and is Complete.
Original Anne Adams instruction wrap has some age-related wear, creasing and discolouration consistent with age and storage.
