The Les Cheries Series No 5

This Les Cheries, 1950’s style schoolgirl uniform pattern consists of a jacket, which fastens with 1 button at the front, a dress to wear underneath, which has a mock pleated skirt attached at the waist, a necktie and fastened with 2 buttons at the top back. There is a pair of all in one shoes and socks to go with the uniform and to complete the outfit a hat and purse/bag.
This pattern is my own design
