AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
Vintage sewing pattern visible in the photo, titled "La petite robe active" (The active little dress). This is a tracing pattern, number 19, available in sizes 38 and 42. The cover features a period illustration of a woman wearing a short-sleeved dress, cinched at the waist, with two large patch pockets on the front. The drawing, typical of 1970s graphic style, uses a palette of reds and grays, with a pencil-like effect for the outlines and details of the face and accessories.
The mention "SUPPLÉMENT GRATUIT" (FREE SUPPLEMENT) appears on the right edge, while the bottom of the page states: "Supplément Chez-Nous – Echo de la Mode N° 19". This vintage pattern is presented in a clear plastic sleeve, suggesting careful preservation. A circular red box also mentions "EXPLICATIONS DE NOS DROITS ET OUVRAGES" (EXPLANATIONS OF OUR RIGHTS AND WORKS), indicating the presence of instructions for making the model.
The overall appearance of the document shows slightly yellowed paper, typical of old publications, with no visible creases or tears on the visible side. The dress illustration highlights a straight cut with a rounded buttoned neckline, and practical details such as the front pockets and the tie belt, characteristic of the utilitarian and casual clothing of that period.
The pattern appears complete on the front, with all main indications visible: number, available sizes, instructions, and origin of the supplement. No major defects are observable on the cover, apart from the natural signs of age for such a paper item.
