Vintage Butterick Dress Pattern

Butterick 8128 -- a classic dress with either the tie collar or the "Italian collar" as it says on the back of the envelope.  The front is one piece with kimono sleeves.  The back isn't one piece but two with another piece sewn in to create that fancy pleat.  The plaid  dress in View C looks like it would be such a casual dress...but not with those white gloves.

Love it -- esp. that kick pleat.

I have that pattern and have made it, but my girl on the center is in olive green!

@ Molly -- Did you post about it? I've read your blog for over a year, but I don't remember it. I love seeing these vintage patterns made up.
