Vintage 1984 Blouse Sewing Pattern N°14 Old Retro Fashion Supplement
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
This document is a vintage blouse sewing pattern, presented as a printed supplement. The cover shows three illustrations of typical early 1980s women's blouses, with characteristic details such as patch pockets, round or button-down collars, and a straight, loose fit. The design, signed P. Pierduthomme, highlights short sleeve finishes, wide belts, and stylized floral patterns on the trousers, reinforcing the overall retro aesthetic.
The pattern bears the inscription "N° 14" in the upper right corner, corresponding to an internal series reference. The page also includes a detailed summary: the "Fashion" section offers a blouse pattern available in sizes 42 and 46, while other sections cover needlework (patchwork, plush toys) and embroidery (anemone motif for a cushion). The blue border on the right side mentions "Pattern Supplement," confirming the nature of the document.
The entire visual is in black and white, accented by blue frames. The printing dates from 1984, as indicated by the footer line: "Imprimerie A.S.A.R., 9 avenue Frans Van Kalken ? B 1070 Bruxelles". This old pattern is therefore a faithful testament to the clothing trends and home sewing practices of the early 80s.
The slightly tilted presentation clearly shows the front of the supplement, without allowing visualization of the back or other interior pages. The general condition shows some typical signs of use for a paper document of the era, but no major flaws are visible on the photographed cover.
The graphic style, typography, and composition are emblematic of retro fashion, with attention to clothing details and a clear layout. This type of pattern was commonly used for home sewing, at a time when clothing personalization was very widespread.
Condition
Used item, sold as is. Visible signs of use on the cover, with no apparent major tears or stains on the displayed side.
