The waist has a deep open front filled with an inset vestee, buttoned down the center in a row of four, with a shallow yoke at the back. Long set-in sleeves gathered into deep cuffs are provided but may be omitted entirely, as shown in the sleeveless illustrated version. The four-piece circular skirt has inset pockets, a panel front, and a three-piece hip-yoke, attached to the waist under a removable belt. The illustration shows the model in the sleeveless version, tennis racket in hand - a design clearly meant to move with an active wearer on the court.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection data-section=\"fashion-history\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA Moment in Fashion History\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy the early 1930s, tennis had become a fashionable pastime for women, and pattern companies quietly built its practical demands into otherwise ordinary-sounding dress patterns - a sleeveless cut for freedom of movement, a trim button front, a skirt with pockets to hold spare balls. Pattern 130's envelope calls it simply a \"Ladies' and Misses' Dress,\" but its illustration leaves no doubt: this was sold and worn as a Tennis Dress, the term period marketing commonly used for dresses built and styled exactly like this one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection data-section=\"connections\" data-connection-type=\"curated\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eConnections\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pattern's envelope may call it a generic \"Ladies' and Misses' Dress,\" but its sleeveless cut, button placket, and tennis racket in hand say otherwise - this is a Tennis Dress, through and through.
