IN rose-bud patterned lingere crêpe, for the summertime, or in daintily printed Dayella for when nights call for something warm, here is a nightdress that is most attractive to wear and yet very easy to make and launder. It has a sweetheart neckline and a group of tiny tucks at centre front waist, from which the strap ends come to tie at the back.
It is an economical design, too, for it only takes 3 to 3 1/4 yards of 36-inch wide material.
See how simply the nightdress is cut. It is on the straight of the material so you can be sure it will keep its shape well.
The patterns of both of these designs can be had in 32, 34, 36, 38 and 40-inch bust sizes.
From Woman’s Weekly, Australia. September 10, 1949.
