Welcome to the forum.  Wonderful clothes from those eras. Just wish I had the shape to wear them. 

Great piccies @BrendaP but OMG that bra must have been soooooo uncomfortable cutting in the way it is.

@Sandra
I came across some children's (3 yr old approx) vintage  patterns yesterday when sorting through my pattern stash which I would be happy to give to you if you'd pay the postage. :D

@annieeg Thank you for the offer, but I don't bother with children's patterns. I have some but my main interest is with the ladieswear.
Thank you  :)

Sandra.

Welcome from me too @Mrsdawes20  :D, some of the clothes from the 40's & 50's were fabulous and I admire you if you wear them. Personally I prefer the mid 60's to very early 70's but at 66 I think I'm a bit too old to get away with wearing them now, I do try to adapt the patterns so I can just about get away with them but definitely no mini skirts

That's because she is wearing the wrong size.  Those straps might as well be cheese wire.
