Vintage 70s Modes & Travaux sewing pattern wool J.F. jumpsuit

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This vintage sewing pattern, published by Modes & Travaux under the "J.F." collection (reference 1802), offers a women's jumpsuit to be made from wool jersey. The cover features a color photograph of a model wearing the jumpsuit: straight cut, wide-leg trousers, large lapel collar, visible front zipper closure, black belt with buckle, and a patch chest pocket. The design strongly evokes the aesthetic of the 1970s, with its clean lines, the ample structure of the trousers, and the casual-chic style characteristic of that period.

The pattern is advertised as "Patron Immédiat Couture" (Immediate Sewing Pattern), designed for use in three main sizes (38, 42, 46) and adaptable to seven sizes (36 to 48), as specified on the cover. A line drawing, visible in the bottom left, illustrates the silhouette of the jumpsuit from the back, highlighting the straight cut and the wide volumes.

The cover features the Modes & Travaux logo on a turquoise green background, with a retro typography typical of 70s fashion publications. The overall visual and graphic presentation confirm the vintage origin of this pattern, aimed at sewers looking for iconic cuts from this decade.

The packaging visible in the photo appears to be original, with a transparent plastic protector. No details on the exact contents of the pattern (condition of the sheets, presence of instructions, etc.) are visible on the front shown, but the general appearance suggests that the cover is well-maintained and the colors are vibrant without significant yellowing.

The mention "COMBINAISON PANTALON en JERSEY de LAINE" (WOOL JERSEY JUMPSUIT) is clearly indicated, specifying the recommended fabric for this design. Size and usage indications are printed in black on the front, ensuring quick identification for vintage sewing enthusiasts or those wishing to create a retro piece.
