For the 1950s Dior half pencil dress, the one-piece dress has a high waist that goes almost under the bust. It has Japanese sleeves and an oval neckline.

FOR CUSTOM SIZES, convo me your measurements and specify your body type. To assure the best fit possible, please refer to my INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO TAKE MEASUREMENTS by copying and pasting the following address into your browser: https://www.contrapuntpatterns.com/taking-measurements
Once you’ve taken your measurements, please paste them into the “Note” box on the Order page.

How to choose a STANDARD SIZE?
I can make standard sizes S, M, L, or XL with small adjustments to better fit you.
Sizes are a tricky issue, and there aren’t any hard-and-fast rules, but I’d say my list of sizes is more European than American.
To assure the best fit possible, please refer to my INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO TAKE MEASUREMENTS here: https://www.contrapuntpatterns.com/taking-measurements
The best way to know your size is to take some measurements of yourself and use them to gauge your size. I can also modify a pattern to better fit your measurements.
For example:
You choose size S (Europe 40-42). If your body is closer to the first number, 86 (Upper bust/Torax 86-88 cm), than the second, 88, please tell me. Otherwise, the pattern will be the standard size S of between 86-88 cm for the upper bust.
~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~
All sizes, both standard and custom, can be modified to your liking (for example, waist higher or lower; skirt longer, shorter, wider, narrower, unpleated, etc.). A dress can be made as either one or two pieces, such as a blouse and skirt, for instance. Please specify any of these alterations by email, or at the bottom of the form “Taking measurements”.
