From beach attire to formal wear for both ladies and young girls, this pattern book has you covered! I particularly like the green/white and red/white dresses on the cover. You don't often see or think about polka dots in the 1920s but there they are!

So which outfit would you wear to a lawn party? Yours truly will be attending the GBVS lawn party at the Crane Estate so be sure to stop by and say hello!
Hi Emily, Thank you for posting these. Lovely to watch. Wish I had the figure to be able to wear these dresses. Would be fun too to sew them. Thank you.
