Please use the measurements as your guide when buying vintage patterns. Vintage sizes, especially on patterns, are very different from modern sizes. This pattern is for a 34" bust but keep in mind that patterns can be adapted to accommodate other sizes!

If you use vintage fabric to create clothing from vintage patterns, it's a perfect way to support ethical fashion and live a more sustainable life!
