The all-around pleated skirt joins the bodice at\na defined waistline, while the oval front neckline and deep V back offer a note of\nsophistication uncommon on daytime patterns of the era. Sleeve options range from a long\nfitted sleeve to a completely sleeveless bodice, letting the dress move between afternoon\nand evening wear. The nine-piece pattern includes its own petticoat, whose gathered tiers\njoin a fitted hip yoke for the fullness the skirt above it is designed to show off.\nSuggested fabrics on the envelope lean sheer and luxurious - chiffon, silk organdie,\nmousseline de soie, point d'esprit, voile, georgette, and lace.\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 1959, the full, structured skirt that had defined the decade since Dior's New Look\nwas entering its final seasons before the slimmer lines of the 1960s took hold. Patterns\nlike Vogue 9712, which supply their own built-in petticoat rather than leaving fullness to\nchance, reflect just how deliberately home sewists were expected to engineer that silhouette\nby the end of the decade. The deep V back and choice of sleeve length also point to a design\nmeant to carry from daytime into evening with a simple change of fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection data-section=\"illustration\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIllustration\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cover illustration has been digitally restored and enhanced by Judy Yates to highlight\nthe original fashion artwork while preserving the character and artistry of this historic\nVogue pattern envelope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection data-section=\"connections\" data-connection-type=\"default\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eConnections\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pattern is part of our ongoing exhibit, \n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.vintage4me2.com\/collections\/always-in-vogue\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlways in Vogue\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e - a growing collection celebrating\nthe fashion-forward spirit of Vogue's home sewing patterns.
