I made that dress back in the day, using a heavy cotton with a coarse weave and a very similar print and colorway. Style was a bargain brand at just about the time that pattern prices started really escalating. It makes me feel ancient, but I really enjoyed watching you make it.

I've inherited my great-grandmother's pattern stash and more than half of the older patterns that I got were style ones. She passed away about 15 years ago, and was sewing for family and herself up that point. Apparently when she moved from Sydney to Hobart one of her friends gifted her with hundreds of style patterns. I've wanted to try making at least one, and seeing how they're relatively easy to follow makes me a lot more confident on that front.

Great, but don’t start with a dress like this. While very pretty, and and Angela did a fabulous job, this is not a pattern for a fresh beginner. I used to love to do pleats and tucks and all, but this dress is not a “learn to sew pattern.” Find one at your local fabric store or online that says “very easy” or “learn to sew” and they are pretty plentiful in all the big brands. I’m 63 and was fortunate enough to take a couple of semesters of “home ec.” I had a very good teacher who taught us all the basics but made us do every step properly...no shortcuts. Started with how to prep your fabric, learned about the grain of the fabric, cut out /prepare the pattern pieces, lay out the pattern making sure it’s straight on the grain of the fabric. I made a basic skirt with a fitted waist band and zipper and it did turn out nice but only because the teacher was there to assist me along the way. Garment sewing isn’t all that hard, but there are a lot of steps and if you don’t know the basics, you can get really frustrated. If you can find a local sewing center or a Joann’s that offers beginner classes, that would be a great start. The instructor can explain everything to you and you won’t get overwhelmed by all the instructions. Good luck!

You making this dress was a blast from my past. I made a similar dress in the 70's out of pink crepe and the collar and cuffs (it was short sleeved) were white. Those instructions were pretty common for the 70's. We used Taylor tacks and chalk to make all the marks. Heaven help you if you get your large and small dots confused.

I'm from the UK and have used Style patterns before. I am almost sure I've got this pattern. I have kept nearly all the patterns I've bought over the years but I would have to check. I think I made it in a flowered cotton fabric with a Navy background and a white collar. I loved that dress. I got married in 1971 and made all my own clothes by hand. I didn't get my sewing machine till the mid 70s. I hate basting and never do it unless absolutely forced to. I'm 5' so had to adjust the pattern accordingly. I love how your dress turned out. The colour and design of the fabric is very 70s and as you say, it's really cute. Regards Rowena 🇬🇧 Sorry for the long comment, I got carried away as your video brought back so many memories.

OK... you sent me running to my pattern drawers... I have several STYLE patterns from the 70's through the 90's. Style Patterns Ltd. were based in London. They began in 1937 and dissolved the company in 1997. From what I can see, their pricing was on the higher end for the timeframe.... and the instructions very detailed... as you found out. They had offices in London, Ontario, Johannesburg, Sidney, Auckland, and New York... so it sounds as if at one time they were very successful. It is nearly impossible to find out anything on them. I could not find where they were included in any industry histories (as Simplicity, McCalls, Butterick, and Vogue are) which is a shame because based on the patterns I have and others I've seen online, they had a very nice product. Your dress turned out beautifully. Thank you for sharing!

Boy, oh boy does that dress bring back a lot of fond memories for me. Back in the late '60s to mid-'70s home sewing was a real thing, very popular and it was common to have a few dresses in your closet that were made by mom or grandma. It wasn't looked at as being "old-fashioned" or unstylish as a matter of fact it was a great way to get the fashion trends because fast fashion wasn't a thing. This style dress and then what we called a "baby-doll" style top along with a crocheted vest (that was long!) were a must. Then, of course, you needed bell-bottoms and crazy print pants around say 1971-72. I have enjoyed this series and the recent interest in vintage patterns that our sewing community seems to be enjoying.

I strongly recommend you basting the center back stitch before installing the zipper, then remove the basting stitches after inserting the zipper. Also, if you sew darts from the raw edge TO the point, you can then tie the threads together in a square knot at each point for durability and precision. If you're going to do French seams, you may as well do these other techniques, too!

Everyone had a dress like this one in the '70's, it was in all the stores at every price point and length was mini or maxi. LOTS of polyester double knit. Now you could make it from ponte and make the back side of a white knit collar(I remember lots of white collars) with a lining material, as the knit would be too thick once we turned the collar. I made this in a linen as well, and not having the stretch made it too short to sit in comfortably. A thinner acetate knit was also used back then and made it more flowy like your rayon did , almost like a knit slip material. You might find any kind of sleeve on it. I had the long circle bell cuff currently popular again on all of mine. This is very current looking because of the print, but a denim levi western style jacket or long vest or a pea coat and platform mary jane shoes would put you right back in the '70's, and you would be the dressed up bomb. You could also style with knee high boots and a long coat with wide lapels, or a mini length dress and navy peacoat. I would love to see this dress in other fabrics. It looks great.

Great dress! So nice to have good instructions! I think it’ll look adorable in a Tula Pink fabric, can’t wait to see that!

It came out adorable and the fabric pink is perfect for this project. (and you only used just 4 nail colors)

Great dress! I could see modifying it slightly for a 40s look, with solid light-weight wool body and contrasting collar and cuffs.

Love watching you sew, your openness about the process and description of all aspects of the pattern. I sew a lot, but it's such a private activity, it's such a relief to see someone else go through and talk about the whole process. Thank You!

I think you need to sew more 70's fashion, it seems like this might be your decade darling. 🎊 Style looks good on you.

Mum made almost the same dress, I don’t remember the collar. She paired it with a cape with the dress material on the inside. Gorgeous dress.

I made that dress into a maxi dress and wore it to a dance! I’d kill for that pattern!

I adore this dress and can't believe we're almost to the end of the series! I'm excited to see what you're gonna pick for the 80's and 90's. And i still think that you should round out the series with another vintage cooking video. I think the 70's onwards has easier recipies, so maybe you would have an easier time of it~
