During one of my thrift shop stops I found this adorable dress pattern, Butterick 4207. The dress was designed by "Young Designer, Australia, Norma Tullo. It was just enough to spark my interest. I had to learn a bit more.

Although some of her dresses are in lace or other fabrics, it seems her fabric of choice was wool. Her designs In 1965, Australian Women's Weekly reported that the Butterick Company signed Norma Tullo, along with Mary Quant, Jean Muir, and Gerald McCann, for their January catalogue. |
