The waist's front and back yokes anchor a crossed-over closing, giving the wrap-front bodice a bit more structure at the shoulder than a simple lapped front would. Below the waist, the skirt takes the idea further with a three-piece hip-yoke - a right and left front section plus a back - smoothing the fit over the hip before the skirt releases into inverted plaits stitched down each side of the center-front, adding controlled fullness rather than a plain flare. Set-in sleeves finish simply, and the whole design is cinched with a removable belt. Ten pieces total.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA Moment in Fashion History\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHip-yoke construction, especially a three-piece version like this one, let designers add fullness to a skirt exactly where it was wanted - just below the hip - without the bulk of gathering at the waist itself. Paired with stitched-down inverted plaits at the front, the effect was a skirt that stayed smooth through the hip and only released its movement lower down, a refinement typical of more considered early 1930s dressmaking. Like its neighbors in this Own Name run, this pattern was produced by the New York Pattern Company but sold under an independent Texas retailer's own house label - Barron Bros., whose original glassine outer envelope survives with this copy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eConnections\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pattern is part of our ongoing exhibit, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.vintage4me2.com\/collections\/in-name-only\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn Name Only\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e - a growing collection of New York Patterns and Own Name Patterns from the 1930s.
