1945 Pinstripe Shirt Dress

I made this dress using an old year 1945 Simplicity #1526. My fabric is a 100% cotton shirting, in a baby blue color with white pinstripes. It has box pleats in the skirt front, pointed cuffs at the wrist, vintage buttons with windowpane button holes, and French/bias bound seams inside. On the chest, there is a cool feature where it gets slashed and gathered. I also mitered the stripes on back shoulder panel. My dress is based on one worn by Peggy from Marvel's "Agent Carter", the "Iron Ceiling" episode. seamracer.wordpress.com/
