 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.

Durable non see through fabric
Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel-88'', Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel-88''
This room divider is exactly what I need. It is very durable and easy to move around. You can’t see through the fabric. I love it. My reason for purchasing this divider is to use as a divider and as a backdrop holder. And it serves both purposes perfectly. It looks much better in person than on camera. It did have the spots on one side on all of them but in a few days they went away. It foldaway and tucked away easily.

Great product
Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel-88''
Love the look of this after it’s put together. It’s pretty sturdy and the connecting clips allow you to shape it different if you need it to fit in a corner. We use this at work so it’s great for the space we use it in. A little hard to store because it doesn’t fold up nicely because of the feet on it but I’m happy with it overall.

Does its job
Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel-88''
For the price the quality is decent. The only thing I do not love is the panels are attached to each other with 3 plastic clips. Only 1 side of the panel is actually attached to wheels. The other side kind of sits on the bar and is held in place with those clips.
