Description

In Britain, back in February 1981, a 19 year old girl became engaged to a Queen s first born son. Almost overnight, that young girl became a world wide megastar who appeared daily in every newspaper and on every TV news bulletin. She was photographed at nearly every moment of her life and her clothing was analyzed in great detail. Her love of ruffles, frills, lace etc caused designers and clothing stores to try and replicate Shy Di s romantic sense of fashion. Five months later that young girl married her prince and became a real life princess. 

This pattern by Genniewren Designs is a nod to Shy Di s outfits from the early 1980s. The pattern contains a tuck-fronted poet shirt with a bound neckline that can be made with or without the ruffled collar. The collar can be made from the shirt fabric, from eyelet trim or from lace. The shirt has a rounded dropped shoulder line, common to men s shirts from the 18th century to the end of the 19th century, and full sleeves finishing in an elasticized ruffled edge. The shirt s blouson style is created by an elasticized waistline, which is optional. The shirt fastens at the center back.
The simple A-line midi-length skirt features a box pleat at the center front, and pockets hidden in the side seams. The back of the skirt waistband is elasticized for easy fit.
A vest (known as a waistcoat in Britain) completes the ensemble. The lined vest can be made reversible for more versatility, or it can be made from pre-quilted fabric.
When worn together, this ensemble embodies the fashions popular in early 1980s Britain, but each of the items in this pattern is versatile and can be worn with other clothing to give a more modern look. The skirt is a wardrobe staple and will be useful for all sorts of projects; the shirt looks great when worn with jeans, and the vest is another quick and easy to sew item that has all sorts of uses. This pattern will definitely become a favorite for your doll, whether she is channeling her inner 1980s New Romantic, or just enjoying some easy to wear fashion items. What s not to like?

This PDF sewing pattern is designed to fit 18 dolls such as American Girl®.

Recommended Fabrics: This pattern is designed for woven fabrics. The shirt should be made from lightweight woven fabric such as cotton lawn, batiste, cotton poplin, or light, soft polycotton blend fabrics. Medium weight woven fabrics such as quilter s cottons are perfect for the skirt. The vest can be made from the same fabric as the skirt, with a contrast lining. It can also be made from pre-quilted fabric. You can also quilt your own fabric to match the skirt if you prefer.
