my place to geek out and speak up

a somewhat creative outlet, fangirling and social awarness blog. I blog about feminism and fandoms So basically a clusterfuck blog, just like my brain.

Look at my new Vintage Patterns - 1980s Fancy Lady Edition

A friend of my mother's gave me her old patterns (look here for the cute kid's stuff) so I thought I'd ensure you can all marvel at them.

There are some gems of the 1980s here:

We start with these ladies from 1985 Vogue who have definitely not killed their husbands

Then quite a nice wrap dress from Vogue Americana. i love when they do both an illustration and a picture

Then some Dior, not my favourite

This Givenchy Suit is A Look at least, particularly with the hat

And then this Nina Ricci dress which is just A Lot. I feel like I'm looking at a nightgown. However, there is a gem hidden in this pattern!

You get a little Vogue label to sew on your clothes! Just to prove that you are wearing Vogue or something. It's a very scratchy label , which makes it even funnier. I just love it
