This is the Titanic dress pattern. I made Gown A. It went together so easily. I followed the instructions exactly and had absolutely no problems. The pattern pieces are really just rectangles. I only made one teensy change; I shortened the shoulder piece. Suzanne Ramsey is wearing the dress Monique made in the photo on the left.

I found a website online which showed the original “Jump Dress”. Good thing I had a friend help me with the research. Together we determined that there are two skirts, not just one with trim attached, and the back is a V-neck. The top should be completely fitted, not gathered around the neck and waist as the pattern was designed. The underdress should close in the back, the overdress closes in front.
Simplicity’s pattern was wrong on nearly all counts. However, I was informed that this pattern is really pretty decent for Regency. I happened to have the Butterick Regency pattern #6630 which I was informed was horrible for Regency, but pretty good for the Titanic Jump dress.
