Marian Martin 9085
Mail Order Pattern
Misses' Summer Dress
Size 16 Bust 34
1955
A beautifully feminine 1950s summer dress featuring a shaped V-yoke, softly gathered bust and a wonderfully full skirt gathered into shaped hip panels. The fitted waist is finished with a narrow belt, creating the graceful hourglass silhouette characteristic of the period.
The design can be made sleeveless or with charming short puff sleeves, while the shaped yoke may be worked in a contrasting fabric. Contemporary advertising described the design as “Soft Flattery”, highlighting the soft gathers at the yoke and skirt and suggesting airy summer fabrics such as voile or nylon.
Unprinted pattern. Pattern has been checked and is Complete.
Original Marian Martin pattern wrap and mailing envelope are included and have age-related wear, creasing and discolouration consistent with age and storage.
