I have been looking for this pattern for ages and the last time I saw it on ebay I think it went for 50 dollars or some outrageos price like that. I finally found it a few days ago hiding in a 50's advance lot pattern and only one other person bit on the lot I got 23 advance patterns for 15.50 and 8.00 for shipping. This is the Advance 8551 I have loved forever!!!

DPD, I have been lusting over that Hollywood pattern forever! It's going to loook so cute on you. I have the trouser pattern. The only problem is that the crotch length is much deeper than modern trousers. This was my first vintage pants pattern. I originally thought the crotch was ridiculous, but can now compare to others and it's typical of the period.
