Sewing a late 1950's bolero and making a Pillbox hat (DIY)!

Welcome to part 2 of "Sewing a late 1950's outfit"!. In this part I am showing you how I made the bolero and the pillbox hat, which was a DIY, using cardboard as I didn't have any millinery materials! The pattern I used is a 1959 vintage sewing pattern that I got from the Vintage Sewing Pattern Company. It's the S3035 and it has 3 patterns, a wiggle dress, a bolero and an overkirt. The pattern size is 36 so I had to make alterations... I'm Arietta, a Jazz singer, Makeup artist and vintage enthusiast who also loves to sew vintage fashions.
