This skirt pattern from 1936 is another fabulous garment that will blend seamlessly into the modern wardrobe. Well actually, there are 3 seams to be exact but you know what we mean. The skirt has a shaped seam in the front and a side zipper opening. It is a fairly straight skirt with the fullness for walking provided by the shaping in the Skirt Front pieces. Any dress weight or bottom weight fabric will work just fine; something somewhat soft that will drape nicely. If you choose a fabric with a bold print – the shaped seam detail will disappear. We recommend finding a beautiful solid color to show off the design to its best advantage.
