From Decades of Style:
"This house dress pattern from 1944 is one we are hoping will appeal to just about everyone out there whether they are vintage pattern enthusiasts or not. The princess seams make it a flattering silhouette for all figures. It is comfortable to wear and gorgeous!
The square neck, sleeves, and pockets are trimmed with rickrack. The front closes with decorative snaps. There is a bust dart in addition to the princess seams.
House dresses were traditionally made from cotton. No reason to change a good thing. Make this one out of a great cotton and you won't be disappointed."
