Do you provide patterns in languages other than English?

Unfortunately, I do not have the resources to provide patterns in any language other than English.

Are multiple sizes available?

Most of the historic/vintage patterns out in the wild are provided in one single size. To preserve the integrity of the pattern and silhouette, I do not scale it into different sizes and do not adjust for modern measurements/proportions (i.e. patterns come in the measurements and "ideal" silhouette--with different rations of Bust-Waist-Hips--as they appear in the source material). I provide a basic guide to grading/sizing a pattern with most purchases.

This pattern is taken off of an original 1950s bra from the brand “Triumph”. It creates a subtle retro “bullet” shape without being over the top. It is made of one layer of a very soft mesh. Seams are finished with narrow pieces (1/4”) of linen tape/grosgrain ribbon which provides more structure in lieu of an underwire. On the cups, there are 5 rows of circular stitches, each ¼” apart, providing a quilted structure to the lower cup. The seam between the upper and lower cup is finished as a French seam. At the sides, there are triangular elastic inserts. The closure is a French Back closure, comprised of doubled over, ½” elastic and a G-hook. The straps are made of ¼” satin ribbon.

Sizing:
Without the elastic back, the band is approximately 30” long; with elastic French back, it is 34-35” long.
The over-bust measurement is approximately 36”.

Fun as H_ll to make and wear. Be carful U can take someone's eye out!! LOL Pattern is hard to read at first till you understand it's antiquated technical term, but it's a quick translation. Bra can be padded and modify if U know how to sew a bit. Great sweater bra with little padding. Changes Ur look entirely different then 21 Century of round soft. It's more like the Chrysler Building then a hexagon Dome. Great pattern great experience in the wearing. U can adjust it to what ever extreme or softness u want. I highly recommend this Bra just for the experience and reactions of wearing the Bullet. Great Piece of History and Foundation Wear Pattern. Try it you'll love it and make many more.
