This is a sewing pattern for a vintage wireless bullet bra.
This bra has a rather sharp cup shape, typical of the 1950s. The cups are quilted in a circle. The bra is made of stable cotton fabric.
The pattern also includes a pattern for high back.
All my bras sewn on conventional sewing machine with the function of a zig-zag.
Please note: this is not ready-made pattern. This listing is for personalized bra pattern according to your individual measurements. This means that your custom sewing pattern is only ready after I receive your custom measurements. You will get a pattern exactly your size.
After completing the purchase, you can download the files: sewing instructions, instructions on how to take measurements.These measurements are different from the usual ones. For universal patterns, 2 measurements are taken – bust and under bust. Since I am making a personalized tailor made pattern, I need more measurements and they may not be familiar to you. Most likely, you have never taken such measurements. This is the difference in the design methodology.
I do not use a conventional measurement system. The main measure that I use is the horizontal arc (HD), in centimeters (see the picture). Simply put, you need to take this measurement between the ends of the underwire through the protruding point of the chest, horizontally. The dimensions of my sewing patterns are according to this measurement (if your measurement of HD is 23 cm, then you need size 23).
Some measurements may be new and unfamiliar to you. But they are necessary to draw an exact individual pattern. Remember that the success of our venture depends entirely on accurate measurements.
Also, measurement notation is not familiar to you. I named them as they are entered in my program. Please pay attention!
You need to take the necessary measurements as indicated. Write down this information in the same form (number, measurement designation) and send it to me by e-mail. Processing of your order will begin only after I receive your letter. I will send you a pattern in PDF format within 2 working days from the date of receipt of your letter.
There are ready-made patterns for this bra in my shop.
