PT31-18 Price: $28.00 New


Simplicity: 2299
Size: 34 bust 37 hip
Printed: No
Circa: 30's
Original Price: 25¢
Envelope Condition: Poor

This "Simplicity" pattern is probably from the 30's. The original price was 25¢. It is a size 34 bust 37 hip. Beachcoat/housecoat--Princess lines, two collar styles, three sleeve choices, button front or wrap style, with or without patch pocket. This is like two completely different patterns! It is view #1, the wrap style that simplicity refers to as a "beachcoat". What a vamp! How stunning that would be to stroll across the beach, remove the coat and reveal to tiny swim suit! There is a tear in the instruction sheet but it does not effect the use.
