1930s McCalls Pattern Catalog

Alas, No aprons! But many enchanting frocks!
My friend Jacquelin is researching the 1930s, I thought she would like to see these.
So very elegant! You can still see a 1920s influence in the shape of the hats.
Don't you love the variety of collars?
Evening gowns-what glamour!

Could I order number 6298, please?

      Your very welcome! I love the old pattern catalogs. Still a little 20s looking, but you can see some classic 30s elements already.

    I have always loved this sleek, thin, straight, long and did I say slender sihouette? Probably because its more of just an ideal than a real shape. lol. The dresses are lovely.

      I know! I love the 30s illistrations! Probably because they are so elegant looking.....and nothing like real life!
