Part 2:

Wedding dresses:

The faded ink numbers and scribbling on the upper right are the measures.. taken some LONG time ago by my grandmother. She was a tailor.

That's all for this time...
Enjoy!

I must show this to my wife's mother, who is 85 and going strong (she even works still). Being Austrian, she would have worn this sort of clobber as a youngster.

Do show her, I think she'll like them.

The dress in the lower right corner is so lovely!

 

[Stray Cat]

Yes.. and the model isn't super thin.

I'm loving these magazine shots! Such amazing clothes... I'm in love with nearly every outfit! thanks for sharing stray cat!

 

[Stray Cat]

No problem.
I have more.. so as soon as I get time to upload them, you'll see them.

I wonder, do you also have the patterns to all these magazines or did some of them get lost?

 

[Stray Cat]

Bartenders..

Bartenders..
May I suggest something?
Could you stick this post (or merge it with the already existing post) because I think it can be useful.. for those who are here for the first time.. or those who just want to see clothing essentials of the '39 to '40.
It's just an idea..

I wish I had ANY of the patterns. But, sadly: they were all lost in WW2.

Sind Sie Deutsche? Diese Bilder zeigen gar nicht die idealische arische Frau, ohne Geschmink und so weiter. Ich frage mich nur, wie leicht es war, solche Zeitschriften zu bekommen... Oder ob die Regierung sich in diesem Bereich nicht einmischen wollte...!
