Now what makes this copy so interesting is that the first issue came out in 1937, and was distributed each Wednesday until in 1942, when German occupation authorities in France stopped the circulation of the magazine {along with others}. The magazine didn't redistributed until 1954, when became a monthly publication instead of weekly.

The dresses on these two pages {above & below} are both made with the same pattern {it is included in the magazine!}. The first {above} is for day. While the second one {below} is for evening. From what I can translate the dress was made from Albena Matte Crepe.
At the bottom of this page is the pattern for the dresses seen in the two above scans.

Now, it is your turn to share your post for today. Oh, and if you can't find a 1930s recipe for tomorrow. You can use any recipe from the 1970s and earlier. Because I used a 1950s recipe as I don't own any 1930s recipes. *smile*
I like that dress- it is very like one that I read about from the 40's! (I just linked in.)
ReplyDeleteI really love this! What a cool find! ^^
