Description

This vintage sewing pattern, published by the Burda brand under reference 2 2390, is designed for making women's dresses with a distinctly retro aesthetic. The illustration printed on the envelope features three variations of dresses with a tailor collar, defined waist, and flared skirt, typical of 1970s style. The proposed models include short or long sleeves, as well as meticulous cut details, such as vertical seams and visible pockets. The pattern is presented in its original thin paper envelope, stored under transparent plastic.

The cover features various inscriptions, including "Patron à trois tailles" (three-size pattern) and "en vente pour tailles 46 + 48 + 50", corresponding to European sizes 20, 40, and 42 according to the Burda chart. The mention "Mit der Zweifach-Garantie" indicates a specific guarantee, typical of German editions of the Burda brand. The visible side shows all the elements necessary for identifying the model, as well as the technical diagrams of the three versions of the dress, printed in black at the bottom of the envelope.

The fashion illustrations highlight floral or striped dresses, in soft and pastel colors, true to the vintage spirit. The designed silhouettes evoke the feminine elegance of the 1970s, with flattering cuts and contrasting collar details. The pattern, complete in its presentation, allows for the creation of several styles from the same base.

The overall condition of the pattern appears good according to the photo, despite a visible tear on the top of the cover paper. No other major defects are apparent on the visible side. The plastic sleeve provides good protection for the whole.

This Burda pattern is sought after for the faithful reproduction of retro dresses, ideal for vintage sewing or recreating period outfits. It is intended for people who want to make their own 1970s-inspired clothes, or complete a vintage wardrobe with a custom-made piece.
