Hint for Tomorrow's Release!
Hello, lovely,
We have been so Barbie-inspired around here that I just had to design another pattern inspired by one of the dream gal's crew! Tomorrow's release is named after Barbie's mod cousin from England, and is the perfect mix-and-matchable garment for all sorts of hijinks!
Whatever could it be?
Put your guesses in the comments below!
xoxo,
Gertie

Francie!?!?
I'm thinking the blue dress from the Barbie movie.
I have been waiting to see if we would go into the late 60s. Super stoked!!
I hope it's something like the striped jacket or red dress. The dress is so cool. https://www.loulou.to/miniature-dream-home/my-doll-francie/
Something warm - a tartan mini-skirt?
Popover dress???
Charm has the Cinch-It which is very similar to the Popover.. Maybe an expansion for it?
Oh my round pregnant belly is hoping for something looser like a trapeze dress 🤞 something that can be a top or a dress would be great!
I’ve just bought a pair of Chelsea boots from Embassy of London.
I’m hoping for a mod dress but thinking it’s a mix and match so maybe a mini skirt?
If we are getting a mod dress, that would be amazing!! Huge fan of 60's mod fashion. I guess I am a fan from 1970's and before.
This kind of dress will look so cute on many people. Sadly I’m not one of them. But I’m super stoked for those it fits! I can’t expect everything to be to our taste or to flatter our particular body shape, but I can still appreciate it - and I do! 😊
That dress is fantastic!!! I didn’t know I needed it until I saw it just now. I’m sure anything that Gertie provides us with will be amazing!!
if it has that neckline i will be ecstatic! i’ve been wanting that for years.
That neckline and a nipped waist would be perfection itself
There’s a dress I *want* it to be, but I’m guessing a shorter skirt
No idea but can't wait to see!!!
Well I’m fricken excited!!! ❤️❤️❤️🥺🥺🥺🥺
So many great outfits: https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=SwxANZmmgiY
NO idea what the pattern will be, but Barbie's mod cousin was Francie - so maybe it will be called The Francie! Excited that it will be something I can make for my UK trip in January.
Please be a cowl neck sweater...
Just had a little trawl through Google images, and francie had some adorable outfits. I'm more a 40s and 50s girl myself, but the early 60s had some very elegant dress and jacket combos.
Before barbie got popular in the uk 🇬🇧 we had Sindy unfortunately it is no longer what they used to be
It's Francie! I'm hoping it's either an empire waist or trapeze style dress and not a drop-waist dress ... that's not a great silhouette on me. But something like this would be gorgeous: https://i.pinimg.com/474x/b2/54/01/b254012ecd9890f8fc5d358a59d67ddc--s-toys-barbie-vintage.jpg
You could make something like that with the carousel dress and sawrena expansion.
Francie!!! Def something swinging and 60’s! I’m guessing a wide cowl neck top!
Same!
I have no idea - I am. 40s and 50s girl, never much about the 60s, but I know it will be in true Gertie amazing style
Ohhh please let it be Francie’s green sweater & skirt set!
Very interesting. Looking forward to seeing the possibilities.
I don't think it's a shift dress as it says that it's a perfect garment for mix and match. Other than that I have no idea
I'll never fit into that!
I love mod! I'm hoping for a classic car coat.
Skipper dress or something of the sort
Mary Quant Daisy Doll?
Oooo a 60’s mod dress
Hmm, I could use a good Shift dress pattern...
Maybe a Barbie Skipper expansion/ interchangeable.
Twiggy? I had the Twiggy doll!
Oooh, a trapeze dress? That's so fun. I don't have a pattern for anything like that.
I make doll clothes, so this'll translate well, whatever it is haha! Looking forward to it
I love mod
Trapeze
A little mod sweater?
Francie! A shift dress would be kind of an obvious guess…but she had some cute little separates that I would be thrilled to make as well! Excited for tomorrow 🤗
Oooh, a gad about sweater?
I’ve been hoping for a style that is looser around the middle and I’m really vibing with tent/shift dresses right now 👀
Would absolutley love a 60s mod dress
Mary quaint Mini dress!!!!!
Sindy?
Francie!! A 60s themed dress! I'm in love!!
I would love to get something like this Francie Dress! https://www.ebay.com/itm/115905510535?chn=ps&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-117182-37290-0&mkcid=2&mkscid=101&itemid=115905510535&targetid=1529493965662&device=c&mktype=pla&googleloc=9011519&poi=&campaignid=19851828444&mkgroupid=145880009014&rlsatarget=aud-1306613350219:pla-1529493965662&abcId=9307249&merchantid=6296724&gclid=Cj0KCQjwy4KqBhD0ARIsAEbCt6i5RUYfxYTb2tL9f_jgeudMgiJ7Pkql1AfCNfXecr8pktUDbmOt2EcaAvgMEALw_wcB
...I literally work with vintage dolls and doll clothes and I'm embarrassed that I'm stumped 😅 So excited for the reveal, though
Can we do mod sleeve for that Megan from mad men iconic birthday dress?!
I think it’ll be a shift dress!
