Rare Hollywood Sewing Pattern 1032 Vintage 1940s Suit Dress Size 18 Bust 36 For Sale

Rare original Hollywood Pattern 1032, dating to approximately 1943, featuring an absolutely classic 1940s two-piece suit or dress ensemble.
Size 18 – Bust 36", Hip 39"
This striking WWII-era sewing pattern includes a beautifully fitted peplum jacket paired with your choice of a dramatic floor-length flared skirt or shorter daytime skirt. The jacket features a fitted waist, long fitted sleeves, wide notched lapels, and a three-button front closure. Optional decorative braid frog closures create the particularly dramatic version shown in red on the envelope.
The skirt is a four-piece flared design and can be made in either:

View 2: Shorter below-the-knee skirt
The finished look is quintessential 1940s wartime glamour — strong shoulders, a sharply defined waist, peplum shaping, tailored lapels, and an elegant flared skirt.
