Recreate "Matinee Fashion," one of the most sought after and expensive original vintage Barbie fashions. This pattern *closely reproduces the original vintage 1600 series ensemble #1640. Finish the fitted red linen dress with zipper (instructions duplicate the vintage zipper technique) or snap closures. The dress is trimmed in braid with faux leopard trim accenting the short jacket. Duplicate the flowing chiffon scarf attached to the pillbox hat, a truly striking feature. *While this design reflects the original design, it is not an exact reproduction.

This "On the Runway..." pattern is professionally designed and computer drafted. Comes in a 6" x 9" white envelope with color photo on the front and instruction "booklet." Step-by-step directions are clear and easy to follow, with illustrations where necessary.

As a bonus, I will also include a pattern for a vintage-style clutch handbag that I made as the perfect classic accessory! Some photos of other color variations are shown above that I've made which show the clutch handbag as well.
