The waist closes under the left arm, its crossed-over fronts forming a soft, wrapped V-neckline, with long set-in sleeves finished in two pieces for a close, tailored fit through the arm. The front yoke and upper sleeve are meant to be cut separately, allowing them to be made up in a contrasting fabric for a two-tone effect, or the entire dress can be made of one material for a simpler look. The attached four-piece circular skirt, finished with a back hip-yoke, is worn under a narrow self-belt at the waist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA Moment in Fashion History\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur Own patterns like this one were sold under a private label rather than the New York Pattern Company's own branded name, letting small department and dry-goods stores offer a full dressmaking line as if it were their own house brand. The option to cut the yoke and sleeves in a contrasting fabric reflects a popular early-1930s trick for stretching a limited dress budget - a small amount of a special fabric could dress up a garment made mostly from cheaper yardage, a practical touch that suited exactly the value-priced shoppers this line was aimed at.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIllustration\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cover illustration has been digitally restored and enhanced by Judy Yates to highlight the original fashion artwork while preserving the character and artistry of this historic Our Own pattern envelope.\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.
