....Marigold was putting the final touches to her list of New Year's Resolutions. So far she had:

1) Do my bit to help shift the British chocolate mountain.
2) Never be caught without my diamonds.

She peered at the list and sighed. It struck her as pretty feeble, on the whole. After all, wasn't it jolly old Michelangelo who'd said something like... Well, what HAD he said, exactly? She strolled over to her bookshelf- ah, yes, that was it! "The greatest danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it". Hmmm. She considered a moment, and picked up her pen.

3) Learn Japanese, Sanskrit and Urdu.
4) Train to become astronaut.
5) Achieve perpetual poise and grace.
6) Live happily ever after.

Yes, that ought to do to be going on with...

Stunning dress and jacket pattern by Simplicity. The dress can also have an overskirt:

"The dart-fitted bodice, which may be worn with shoulder straps, folds down at the upper edge, forming a petal on either side of the center front seam. The skirt, cut in four gores, falls in a wide flare. A waistband, ending in tie ends in front, tops the overskirt, which is open in front. The dart-fitted kimono-sleeved jacket has a five-button front closing. Turn-back cuffs are featured and the jacket is rounded at the lower edge."

SIZE:
--------

34" bust, 37" hip

Pattern has no date printed, but is from the 1950s.

CONDITION:

All pattern pieces and instructions are present and correct.

Pattern pieces are of the unprinted, pre-cut to size variety, and are in good condition; a couple of the bigger pieces may need an iron.

The envelope is in reasonably good vintage condition, with some wear and tear. One tear on the back has been mended with artist's tape on the inside.
