There are no shortage of reasons why reproduction vintage sewing patterns are not as good as the original vintage patterns. So many folks ask me, "Why don't new patterns fit like vintage patterns?" or "Why doesn't the finished dress look like the drawing on the cover?" or "Why can't I make the walkaway dress reproduction look right?"
I did some research into these questions and came up with lots of assessments:
Did you know they use modern blocks to adjust for a more modern fit?
Did you know some companies asked for donations of patterns to reproduce instead of paying for them?
In this video I will fully breakdown all of the reasons I hate vintage reproduction patterns done by the "Big 4" (Simplicity, McCall's, Butterick and Vogue).
