 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.

Comfy and supportive
Love it! Very snug and supportive. I am 5‘6“ 188 pounds. I am wearing a 34H and it fits perfect. Will definitely be adding more colors to my collection. Hopefully they add the HSIA Delia collection that are similar to these, but have printed options.

Very Good strong material
I love the bra but story time, I initially got a 38DDDwhich is or was my size however I wore the 38DDD all day at work (RN) and the bra did hurt my sides like the sides were possibly too tight and digging into my ribs BUT the support was amazing and the minimizing was PERFECT I looked almost 2 cups sizes smaller in my opinion but I figured something was off so I ordered a 40DDD got those and the side digging wasn’t there but I lost a little bit of support maybe or I could have just done the straps wrong because it was a quick try on but overall I love the slimming effect and the material is soft and I truly appreciate this bra. The material is STRONG not cheaply made very beautiful over all. This is a good quality bra once I figure out the correct size . I ordered another 38G to see if I noticed a difference and a 40G to see if my cup size is wrong all together (which is what I think it is more so than the band size) I tried another brand and the 38 band was find the cup was too small in 3 different brands. Guess I’ve gained some weight but overall even with the pain for the side digging I could tell this was a GREAT bra. Just measure yourself correctly lol
