Description

This document, visible in the photo, is a vintage sewing pattern published by "Pour vous Madame MODES DE PARIS N°1371". It is a free weekly supplement titled "Nos Patrons Pratiques" (Our Practical Patterns), intended for creating women's clothing. The cover features a ruffled blouse model, photographed in black and white, worn by a mannequin with large glasses and a soft-brimmed hat, typical of retro style.

The item has a vertical layout, with precise inscriptions such as "QUATRE MODÈLES AVEC UN PATRON DE CHEMISIER" (FOUR MODELS WITH ONE BLOUSE PATTERN) and an indication of available sizes (40 to 44). The main image shows a long-sleeved, V-neck blouse, adorned with several rows of embroidered ruffles, which evokes a romantic and feminine design, characteristic of the 1970s-1980s.

The printed text details the concept of the pattern: "Starting from the idea of the pointed décolleté bodice suitable for a blouse or jacket, a dress or a pinafore dress, here are four very different and useful models for all hours of the day." The first model, highlighted, is described as an elegant blouse with English embroidery ruffles around the deep V-neckline.

The entire visible sheet appears in good general condition, without tears or obvious stains. The typography and graphics are typical of French fashion publications from the mid to late 20th century, with a neat and professional presentation.

The document is printed in black and white, on flexible paper, and shows no patterns or color elements on the displayed side. The edges show slight signs of use, consistent with the age of the object.
