Gertie at Charm Patterns

October’s Patreon pattern, the Lorelei Gown, is a scene-stealing ode to the scene-stealing gowns worn by Marilyn Monroe and Jane Russell in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes! 💃🏼💃🏼

It’s nearly time for a new Patreon pattern! Tomorrow's release is very closely inspired by a garment I've wanted to recreate for YEARS. I'm so excited to release this one! It's extremely glamorous, and involves four different fabrics. Whatever could it be?

Have you sewn this month’s Patreon pattern, the Katharine Skirt, yet? This version features a playful tropical print, and has been paired with the Gina Bustier 💕

You deserve the fanciest of vintage-inspired undies and loungewear, and the newest Charm pattern was designed to deliver exactly that! Part of our Foundations Collection, this pattern includes a Slip, Camisole, and Tap Pants chock full of pretty details 💝

Have you seen August’s Patreon pattern yet, the Marlene Blouse? Chock-full of chic 1940’s details, this blouse will become an instant classic! It comes in our full 2-20 and 18-34 size range with cup sizes A-H and clever gathers and pleats for shaping, so you can say goodbye to bust gaping!

The Elizabeth Caftan is the perfect pattern to create a very chic cover up ☀️Made in the short version, this pattern is your ideal poolside fashion statement! Find it on Patreon now in our full size range, 2-20 and 18-34, as well as cup sizes A-H 💕

Did you know that the dress we featured on the cover of our latest issue of Vintage by Gertie magazine is a recreation of an altered Edith Head gown Audrey Hepburn wore to the 1954 Oscars? We used the Sabrina Dress as a base, paired with the Holly Shoulder Strap back over the Lamour.

As part of the Stanwyck series, the Ingrid skirt can be combined with some of your favorite Charm bodices to create unique dresses if you aren’t feeling separates 💃🏼 Here, we’ve paired it with the Aurora with a neckline modification. The Ingrid is available now on Patreon!

If you’re at Disneyland for Dapper Day, come say hi at the Charm meet up! We are convening at the Petrified Tree (across from the Golden Horseshoe) Sun. 13th at 2:30. Sarah, our Community Manager, will be there!

It’s the beginning of another month, which means it’s time for a new Patreon pattern! We are pleased to introduce the Ingrid skirt, a classic and versatile A-line skirt with smart details that will fulfill all your forties needs!

Did you see our feature in the latest issue of Vintage by Gertie on how to create the multi-layered tulle skirt with appliqué embellishment to expand the Lisa Bodice (available on Patreon in sizes 2-20 and 18-34 and cup sizes A-H) into Grace Kelly’s iconic Rear Window dress?

The Night & Day Dress is now available in our full range of sizes! This pattern has been a longtime favorite in sizes 2-20, but it is now also available in sizes 18-34 and cup sizes A-H!

William Travilla, who designed some of Marilyn Monroe’s most iconic costumes, is the designer behind the polka-dot dress worn in The Seven Year Itch that inspired our latest Charm Pattern, The Monroe Dress 💖

What is everyone working on now? Do you have a current project you’re in the middle of, or something you’re planning to dive into?

We have another beautiful #Monroe Dress to share from Laura! The pattern is available now as part of our Charm Patterns collection, and is available in sizes 2-20 and 18-34 with separate cup sizes A-H as well as an optional built in bra!
