An exceptionally nice beach wear pattern design consisting of slacks, shorts & a finely cut shirt. This one is used and restored, please take a look at the quality to learn more. The masculine style of the pattern is pretty cool for 1950 and looks very wearable.
The shirt looks clean and simple, but has a very gentle feel to it. The thoughtfully designed band details add a touch of sophistication. This subtle elegance allows it to easily transition from casual to more polished settings. For warm days, the sleeveless version can be effortlessly worn over shorts that feature convenient pockets at the hem. A practical choice for outdoor activities or leisurely strolls.
Moreover, the design is enhanced by a band that trims the neckline. This contributes to the overall sleek appearance. The front buttoned closure of the shirt adds functionality while maintaining a stylish demeanor. Complementing the shirt, the short sleeves are designed to turn up and form cuffs, providing a refined finish that elevates the entire look.
In addition, the styles are all pleated softly at the front, which not only adds texture but also creates a flattering silhouette. The designer cleverly concealed large pockets in the side seams, ensuring that the design remains clean without sacrificing practicality. Optional belt carriers allow for customization based on personal style preferences. The slacks elegantly turn up at the bottom to form cuffs, adding a tailored touch.
In Style II, the shirt is sleeveless, offering an alternative that is perfect for warmer weather. Bands are a clean option for neckline and armholes. The bands of the large patch pockets echo the shirt’s overall aesthetic. This attention to detail not only enhances the shirt’s visual appeal but also reinforces the commitment to comfort and style in this versatile ensemble.
