 Sizes XS-2XL 

Turn-of-the-century women lingered over breakfast in this soft, pleated, closely fitted house dress or “wrapper” before struggling into their corsets. This pattern recreates this Day Dress look.  The buttoned front lining and the princess line in the back pull in the dress creating a fitted bodice, while pleats at center front and back are held in place with waist ties and simple square collar. Rounded yokes, finished with ruffles over the shoulder complete the traditional dress and may be omitted for a simple version. Full sleeves are gathered at the top and finished with simple buttoned cuffs.  The skirt, fitted over the hips, falls to a wide flounce at the ankle. 

The pattern may be cut street length (contemporary) or as a blouse. For day or evening wear, the dress is perfect in challis and crisp silk as well as traditional cotton calico.

Note: This pattern is from Folkwear's former 208 Calico Day Dress.  We have increased the size range, improved the instructions, and re-released the pattern as 246 Calico Day Dress (#208 was taken by 208 Child's Kinsale Cloak over the years). 

Era: late Victorian to early Edwardian

Suggested fabrics: Lightweight cotton and blends, silk, lightweight wools, rayon. Originals were made in cotton calico, percale, cashmere, sateen, challis.

Really adorable & functional room divider! I love mine!
Color: Dark Coffee, Size: 4 Panel
Really beautiful divider. I use it out on my patio at my apartment building to provide privacy, shade & keep my things safe. At 6 foot tall and 4 panels (I strongly suggest 4 panels) it's quite a lovely addition to my home. It's delicate so handle carefully but it comes completely put together & just set it up. Being able to move it inside or outside or wherever because it's so light makes it very mobile. It's not too opaque you can see through it but if it's for total privacy use a tablecloth or something behind it to make it less see through. It's strong and big and I had a question for their cs and they responded immediately and handled it right away which is a sign of a good company. It's light so make sure you secure it if it's windy for stability.

Nice Look
Color: Dark Coffee, Size: 8 Panel
Attractive and Very versatile. Pretty sturdy, but use care if you buy larger screens when moving. Hinges are small so moving it recklessly could break them. Overall I would recommend this screen. I love it

I Like it...Perfect sunscreen to keep the Sun off me: I Need To Test Outside Durability
Color: Natural, Size: 4 Panel, Color: Natural, Size: 4 Panel
I have Southern exposure on my 6th story balcony. For most of the year, the Sun out there is unbearable. I have had another room divider/sunscreen I have outside in all weather conditions for 9 years...and it has held up well and still going (but showing age). Hoping this one will be as durable. I will update my review after some weather conditions have put it through its paces. The divider is quite attractive and lightweight. It is perfect for what I need it for at this time, and is stable in the wind with the anchoring system I have used.
