50’s Redingote and Dress, Looney Tunes, and Pinafores, Featured Patterns

            

Redingote (def.) a woman's light dress or coat of the 18th century, with an open-fronted skirt, revealing a decorative underskirt. So I guess in the 1950’s this was a designer’s take on the riding coat of the 18th century, just closed at the top to show off the dress underneath. Gorgeous dress.

Stuffed Looney Tunes Characters, Bugs Bunny, Sylvestor, and Tweety Bird.

Adorable dress with puffed sleeves, elasticized cuffs, and pinafore. In size 4.
