This is a print-at-home sewing pattern for a show-stopping 1930s Ladies' Brassiere and Tap Panties. This charming little set can be sewn in 2 styles.

The panties include a side placket closure (with snaps, buttons, or hooks) and a bias-faced waist. Style 2 is a bra for evening wear with a cross-over ribbon and elastic strap fastened at the front. The panties may be made with or without lace and the full-sized applique/ embroidery motif (pattern included!).
