Making a ~slightly chaotic~ Plus Size 1950's Nightgown from a Vintage Pattern for Valentine's Day

Another day, another chaotic adventure of using a 1950's vintage sewing pattern.

Today’s endeavor is 1955’s Simplicity 1850 in a bust 38” (which I am not). I used vintage fabric to make this vintage nightgown. This pattern was SUPER easy to size up! But I will show you how and why this project took 3 days to finish (spoiler alert it could’ve been done in one).
