10 Vintage Sewing Patterns from the 1930s + Our Favorite 30s Vintage in the Shop

Source

We are back with another collection of vintage sewing patterns, this time from the 1930s! What a treat it is to be able to look back at these and see the transformation of styles from decade to decade. You can really tell the 30s apart from other vintage pieces because of the lines and shapes of the clothes, so striking. The bias cut skirts, the neckline details, those draped sleeves! Take a look below and some of the patterns we found below as well as our favorite vintage 1930s clothing that are now available at our vintage shop.

Vintage Sewing Patterns: 1930s Dresses

I strive to learn something new about vintage clothing every day and that usually includes leafing through old catalogs and vintage magazines as well as browsing through the thousands of vintage sewing patterns online. These vintage 1930s sewing patterns are all from Etsy and really illustrate the gorgeous frocks that many women made at a time when mass produced clothing wasn't the norm.



My sewing skills are very limited to mending seams, sewing on buttons, and fixing little repairs. My mother on the other hand is an amazing seamstress and could whip up one of these dresses (without a pattern!) in a day. It's really quite amazing that my Mom is so skilled with clothing construction and I am just learning how to sew straight seams.
