Design
Pattern 3057 offers two very different blouse silhouettes from six pattern pieces. View A is the shorter, tunic-length version, slipped on over the head with a soft front sash, optional inset front pockets, and a small round collar. View B extends to full length and wraps at the front to a low V, closing over a fitted vest insert and finished with a longer, pointed collar. Both share the same fitted, full-length sleeve, which can be perforated down to a seven-eighths flare cuff or shortened entirely.
A Moment in Fashion History
This pattern is documented in the 1924 Ladies' Home Journal pattern catalog (page 123), grouped among more than a dozen ladies' and misses' blouse patterns spanning wrap fronts, slip-on styles, and sailor collars - a reminder of just how central the separate blouse was to a woman's mid-1920s wardrobe, worn over a range of skirts to multiply a limited set of garments into many different outfits.
