There are many reasons to this addiction, from the lovely illustrations to my annoying tendancy to prefer the idea of a dress to the dress itself, but the main reason is certainly that when I buy a vintage pattern I feel like getting a time capsule. As a fashion history lover, I&#8217;m always eager to know more about the never-ending cycle of fashion, and how the home-sewing market adapted current trends. I&#8217;ve noticed that most of my favorite patterns are from 1973, an excellent year for Simplicity it seems. The company seems to have taken inspiration from contemporary brands Cacharel and Biba.<\/p>\n<p>Why sould I talk about that, as I&#8217;m\u00a0 currently tied to my desk with a &#8216;m\u00e9moire&#8217; to write and can&#8217;t really develop on the subject (nor sew anything for that matter)?

I even took the time to read the sewing instruction during my lunch break, hence fully enjoying a bit of 1973, which seems to be my favorite fashion period (though one could argue that sewing instructions are pretty timeless), and I just wanted to remember that for later. Oh, and I know my illustrations don&#8217;t have anything to do with the purpose, but hey, they&#8217;re from 1973, too!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m a vintage sewing patterns addict.
