1930s Panelled Skirt Sewing Pattern with Buttoned Front Bands

This 1930s panelled skirt has a clean, flattering shape that looks just as wearable today as it did when it was first published. The front is accented with decorative buttoned bands that frame the centre panel, while an inverted pleat at the back adds comfortable ease of movement without losing the skirt’s tailored silhouette. A neat side fastening on the left completes the design.

The original pattern includes clear, basic step-by-step instructions that are easy to follow, making it a satisfying project for anyone who enjoys sewing vintage clothing.

Designed to fit a 26-inch waist and 35-inch hips.

The pattern was originally intended for fabrics such as shantung, novelty woollens, linen, flannel and knitted fabrics including Ponte Roma. Medium-weight fabrics with a little structure will all work beautifully, allowing you to create a skirt that’s as practical to wear today as it was in the 1930s.
