Description

This document is an old sewing pattern, extracted from a weekly supplement "Pour vous Madame" by Modes de Paris, issue number 1393. It is an original paper pattern, illustrating two models of women's winter capes, sizes 40 to 44. The page features a black and white photograph of a model wearing a loose hooded cape, retro style, typical of 1960s women's fashion.

The visual style of the page evokes the editorial aesthetic of mid-20th century fashion magazines: sober typography, vertical layout with explanatory text on the right and a large illustrative image on the left. The proposed pattern highlights practical and elegant capes, designed for winter, with precise descriptions of their creation and finishes.

The visible cape, loose and structured, has a large covering hood, a double-breasted closure, and a sleeve pocket, characteristic details of vintage sewing patterns from that era. The fabric suggested in the text is loden or wool, suitable for the cold season. The photo also shows a woolly textured scarf, a typical accessory for retro winters.

The document is printed in black and white on paper, with a slight visible patina on the edges and slight cockling, indications of authentic age. The printed text is legible and includes the title "2 des capes pour l’hiver" (2 capes for winter), the mention "Nos patrons pratiques" (Our practical patterns), as well as a detailed description of the model presented. The "Modes de Paris" brand and the reference "N° 1393" are clearly visible at the top right.

This old pattern is for anyone wishing to recreate a retro garment or enrich a vintage fashion document collection. It is a valuable source for reconstructing period clothing or for stylistic inspiration from the 60s.
