Introducing the Catskills Halterneck
The Catskills halterneck bodice is inspired by one of Mrs. Maisel’s outfits from season 2 of the show.
My pattern departs slightly from the screen version, featuring a centre front seam rather than a surplice front. However, I've included a pattern hack to make the outfit more screen-accurate.
This versatile pattern will play well with a variety of skirts, such as the Sightseeing skirt, Mimosa 3/4 circle skirt and Mimosa gored skirt expansion - or recreate Mrs. Maisel’s look by pairing with the free picnic skirt from Charm Patterns.
You can also make the Catskills Halterneck as a separate top - use a separating zipper or hook-and-eye tape, or alternatively extend the bodice back at the centre to create an overlap and make a button closure.
To complete the Mrs. Maisel outfit, look out for the slim-fitting Catskills shorts, coming soon as an Aficionado bonus pattern!

Question, looking at the fit notes it says the same as for the Café Culture dress, 2-3" ease at bust and 1" at the waist, is this right? Also on the neckfacing the marker how far to stitch them together is missing on the A0, maybe the text is on top of it?
The way I was literally searching for a pattern like this YESTERDAY. I am EXSTATIC!!!
Hurrah! Always happy to oblige ☺️
FYI the file labeled C/D has the DD/E/F file. Also noted it does have the C/D armhole facing, but the bodice is DD/E/F
I noticed the same thing when I opened the files. I'm sure she'll get it corrected soon. 😊
This is so pretty! I can’t wait to make it, I just need to decide what fabric to use from my stash.
Yay, I can’t wait to see what you choose! ❤️
I have been wanting this dress. Thank you love.
Yay, so happy you like it!
Super cute. Thank you!!! I’ll never have the time to sew everything I want to sew.
Oh I know the feeling haha! Part of the reason I took a month off Patreon was to catch up on my sewing list lol
Oh you darling I've loved this dress since I saw it on Mrs maisel thank you so much I'm definitely adjusting my summer sewing to get this done xx
Yay so happy! I’ve been wanting to make this pattern since starting my Patreon haha! Now to reproduce the stripe fabric for spoonflower 💚
I just adore your striped version! It’s inspiring me to make this in stripes or checks.
Ooh I’d love to see a version in checks ❤️ I’m also planning to reproduce the Mrs Maisel stripe fabric to recreate that outfit too!
Wow I love this! 💖 And as a top would be great for using up remnants… We often have narrower pieces left don’t we, so a centre seam works great. 👍
Yes that’s so true! I’m glad you like it ❤️
