 Sizes XS-2XL 

Turn-of-the-century women lingered over breakfast in this soft, pleated, closely fitted house dress or “wrapper” before struggling into their corsets. This pattern recreates this Day Dress look.  The buttoned front lining and the princess line in the back pull in the dress creating a fitted bodice, while pleats at center front and back are held in place with waist ties and simple square collar. Rounded yokes, finished with ruffles over the shoulder complete the traditional dress and may be omitted for a simple version. Full sleeves are gathered at the top and finished with simple buttoned cuffs.  The skirt, fitted over the hips, falls to a wide flounce at the ankle. 

The pattern may be cut street length (contemporary) or as a blouse. For day or evening wear, the dress is perfect in challis and crisp silk as well as traditional cotton calico.

Note: This pattern is from Folkwear's former 208 Calico Day Dress.  We have increased the size range, improved the instructions, and re-released the pattern as 246 Calico Day Dress (#208 was taken by 208 Child's Kinsale Cloak over the years). 

Era: late Victorian to early Edwardian

Suggested fabrics: Lightweight cotton and blends, silk, lightweight wools, rayon. Originals were made in cotton calico, percale, cashmere, sateen, challis.

Love her🥹
Love her so much. I just wish I could get her in a much bigger size too. Shipped very quickly and it was well packaged. It’s very lightweight but durable. Great value for the money. Perfect addition to my bedroom.

Small but detsil oriented
Color: Laocoon 5.5"
I saw this originally in a render online and fell in love with the fluid motion and emotion within the piece. The tale is tragic, if you want to read it, but this is a beautiful little take on it. Pleased by its size, quality, weight and the detail is impeccable. He chills on my work desk.

Elegant little piece

Simply so perfect. It adds a hint of elegance to any space. I did notice a tiny crack by his ear while taking pictures, still it's barely noticeable. I think it gives it character!
