Sew the ultimate 1950s vacation wardrobe from a genuine vintage pattern. This is a faithful reproduction of Simplicity 1168 (1955), with every original marking preserved and sizes carefully extended beyond the original range, delivered as an instant digital download.

The design: a Junior Misses' and Misses' set — a wrap-around sarong dress with halter neckline, curved bodice and side skirt drapery; a jacket with short kimono sleeves and mandarin collar; a faced strapless bra; and trim shorts fitted with waistline darts. Pure tiki-era glamour.
