Description:

This is a lovingly created printed sewing pattern styled from media images of a dress worn by Cardi B.  This pattern has been drafted by traditional methods and aspires to be true celebrity style: a considerable amount of hours research has been made to ensure the actual seam lines are recreated to emulate this amazing design.  Daisy's Pattern Parlour is passionate about bringing celebrity designs to everyone, regardless of their shape or income!  Now we can all wear the outfit of our dreams!  And better still, when your loved dress has seen better days - you can make a new one!


This sewing pattern is used to make: a 2 piece dress.  The dress has a collar, shoulder ruching, option to wear with or without shouder pads, long sleeves, dropped pointed waist to front, on waist to back, twist asymmetrical skirt with thigh split. 

For stretch fabrics.

Pattern now INCLUDES: fabric layout, quantities, instructions with sketches and seam allowances.

New size options are now available: British Standard 8 to 22, plus size 22 to 30, and African woman pear shape 14 to 24.  The  African women size chart has been created from research by Ola-Afolayan and Mastamet-Mason in their study of women's measurements of the "South African Woman of African Origin".


Essential information:  (Read before buying)

Construct an inexpensive toile first.  Please do compare your own measurements with those in the charts as these are British Standard 1982 sizes and are not like the sizes used by modern high street manufacturers. 

This product is for a modern sewing pattern based on a vintage style and not an actual garment for sale.

This item will be made to order on first order and therefore there is a 10 working day handling time, plus postage time.

PATTERNS ARE FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY - ABSOLUTELY NOT FOR MANUFACTURING PURPOSES, COPYING, RE-BRANDING, SELLING, DISTRIBUTING OR SHARING IN ANY WAY.


About me: 


My patterns come in many guises.  Some I create from vintage fashion plates and are in every way an authentic vintage pattern, some are digitised original hard-to-find or out-of-print vintage patterns with the option of being graded to offer more sizes, and some are created from iconic photographs using patterns of the era with a little bit of skill and expertise included to create a pattern that is often a unique find - if even ever made!  Hands up those of you who would like to wear a Marilyn Monroe dress, or that of one of your icons??

My patterns are crafted by hand, digitised and then printed on the best paper available.  I only use fit-for-purpose fashion design paper, not other styles of paper that may tear when you pin it and does not move as one with the fabric.  I strive to continue product development in order to provide you the best experience when using a DPP pattern.  

If in doubt, or if you have any questions please message before making a purchase.

Finally, do you have a design in mind that you would like to buy?  Message me for a request and I shall create a listing for you.

 

A word or two on sizing:

I use the modern 1982 British Standards size charts.  These relate closely to the vintage sewing patterns such as Vogue and Simplicity, and also with today's sewing pattern manufacturers.  You could consider these as 'vintage sizes' and the reason for this is that high street fashion manufacturers strayed away from the standards with what is known as 'vanity sizing' in an attempt to get you to buy their product over their competitors.  You could expect to be two sizes larger than modern high street fashion sizes.
