   Em,

   I can't help you with an Adrian pattern, but thought you might want to take a look at this website:

   http://www.retrofitpatterns.com

   They sell a select group of patterns, all modern, modelled on classic gowns from the heyday of the cinema glamour queen.

   I have found old Hollywood patterns in several places online.  I bought most of mine from ebay auctions over the past 4 years.  When I want to find other sources, I to to google and type in any of the following search words:  "vintage patterns,"   "Hollywood patterns,"  "1940s patterns," or "period costume."   I've found several sites, which I can't think of right off hand with the exception of Amazon Drygoods.  But there are several places where you can buy original patterns or find reproduction patterns. 

   It is well worth the effort as these old patterns have very graceful styling and seem to have some of the feminine touches that have gotten lost in the shuffle over time.    Good luck with your search, Rasby
