I know! I know!It was homemade from McCall's pattern number 4405, dating from the mid 1970s, but it has all sorts of 40s detailing. I was lucky to have had the pattern for sale recently, and when I found the homemade dress I recognized it immediately.
[Gotta love those Farrah Fawcett faces on pattern envelopes of the era!]
BTW, the dress is currently for sale on eBay.

So pretty. I wish I looked better in dresses--they are such fun to wear.
oh my - I loved those styles the first time.
I made most of my clothes in the 70s, and I always looked for patterns like this one. I truly loved the 40s influences. It wasn't too much longer that I discovered the real thing and became hooked on vintage!
Exactly my history Lizzie!
