Vintage 1940s keyhole neckline peplum dress pattern - Vogue 5356

Description

..."They say that Piguet's thought process lacks coherence and that his last collection struggled to live up to his own genius,."
"They do? Really?"
"No, no, you're not supposed to say that."
"Oh come on. I'm obviously the contact you're meeting. Why else would anyone be hanging around this godforsaken depot? Just hand over the secret documents and we can both be on our way."
"Say it."
"Oh, alright already. But they say he's still a designer bringing a much needed sense of modernity to an old tradition; a designer who can take couture fabrics and treat them with a degree of reality that defuses theatrical grandeur. There. Happy now?"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Slim skirt with back panel and gathered peplum joins bodice at waistline. Outside dart each side of diagonal cut-out below collarless neckline. Cap sleeves cut in one with bodice."

DATE:
---------

There is no date on the envelope, but the pattern is from the 1940s.

SIZE:
--------

36" bust, 39" hip


CONDITION:
-------------------

Pattern is complete with all pieces and instructions. (Pattern pieces, like all Vogue patterns of this period, are pre-cut to size and unprinted, with markings indicated by notches and perforations as shown in the instructions.) Although pieces are in usable condition, there are a few tiny tears that we suggest you simply pin in place as you cut your fabric. The envelope is in reasonably good condition for its age with a couple of small tears down the left hand side. (The pattern also smells a little musty, but not unpleasant.)
