Golden Garbs- Summer Suits!

The Summer Suit

Heaven knows I love the chic-polished look of a vintage tailored suit! Just because it's summertime, doesn't mean that I'm going to put the thought of wearing one, on the shelf for a few months! Summer suits made of lightweight linen or cotton fabrics, with a short sleeve, are a ladies alternative choice to wearing a suit in the summertime!

Here I am in one of my summer suits, in a light green (almost gray) linen fabric, with navy blue buttons!

(1940's navy mesh style wedges)

A few more sewing patterns of summer suit inspiration!

Any one of these suit ensembles would be lovely paired with a straw summer hat...

    I am looking for 1940's dress's for a USO 40's b-day party my twin and I are having for our 40th. We have been searching for months for that right dress. I love this pattern for a dress. I am not sure which is the best route to go trying to find one or make one....any ideas?

    I love sewing patterns. I love 1950s and 60s sewing patterns. I do NOT love sewing . . . but will love whoever sews something for me. : )

    All of your patterns are beautiful. As we can observe, the fashion style during those 1940's are back this modern days and more ostentatious.
