It was made out of an off-white thick crinkly woven cotton and I loved it!. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-decade#post-370670 Tue, 21 Jun 2011 17:55:38 +0000 RandomThoughts (Andrea) 370670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That collar - 70's!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-decade#post-370650 Tue, 21 Jun 2011 17:01:05 +0000 patti 370650@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I vote 70's too, because I had a similar suit (Not Dior!) when I started my business career in the late 70's. I think it will look gorgeous in a spring-summer weight gab or silk blend, or any number of choices. Would love to see what you choose. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-decade#post-370624 Tue, 21 Jun 2011 15:32:36 +0000 Freckles 370624@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a beautiful pattern, it will be stunning once finished. I always find it quite intimidating to choose fabric (not a sewer here) but exciting and fun at the same time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-decade#post-370596 Tue, 21 Jun 2011 14:29:11 +0000 Angie 370596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote late 70's too. How about a poly rayon blend ? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-decade#post-370556 Tue, 21 Jun 2011 13:05:32 +0000 Suz 370556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice! Looks 70s to me, as well! Show us the result! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-decade#post-370533 Tue, 21 Jun 2011 10:36:38 +0000 suzanne 370533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sally, firstly the pattern is stunning and so elegantly simplistic; at a guess I would say that it is vintage 1970's. The pattern should make some recommendations regarding fabric type on the back. Don't veer too far from their recommendations - they are the experts </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-decade#post-370525 Tue, 21 Jun 2011 09:29:30 +0000 Sally 370525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bought a vintage pattern online to make a suit. I don't know what era it is but I really like the style. I'm going to see if I can find someone who can make it for me. Anyone know the era or have any suggestions for fabric and styling?</p> <p>oops edited to add link...<a href="http://vintagepatterns.wikia.com/wiki/Vogue_2908" rel="nofollow">http://vintagepatterns.wikia.com/wiki/Vogue_2908</a> </p>
