This pattern, designed for women's dresses, offers three European sizes visible on the cover: 38, 40, and 42. The front shows several illustrations: a color photograph of a model wearing a light blue dress with short sleeves and a contrasting belt, as well as two technical drawings representing other dress variations (including a version with a contrasting collar and a floral print version).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe pattern is clearly identified as a 70s model, both by the clothing style and the graphic layout typical of this decade (characteristic \"burda\" lettering, pastel color palette, sober layout). The instructions appear multilingual, with a French mention \"Patron à trois tailles\" and an English mention \"Three-sizes pattern\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe visible pouch is translucent, revealing the folded paper pattern sheet inside. The illustrations highlight feminine dress cuts with a defined waist, short sleeves, and a shirt collar, very representative of retro fashion. The overall presentation is neat: the edges of the pouch are clean, with no visible tears on the exposed side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe black and white technical drawings specify the different possible variations from the same pattern. The whole is printed on a colored cardboard sheet, typical of Burda sewing patterns of this era. The reference number \"2 0940\" is clearly legible at the top left, with the French and American sizes indicated just below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis vintage Burda pattern is ideal for creating a retro dress, faithful to the aesthetics of the 1970s, or for completing a collection of old sewing archives. All visible content is period, with no subsequent additions or apparent modifications on the side shown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item, sold as is.
