Advance Pattern Fashion News - August 1945 (Free Download)

This 8-page August 1945 Advance Pattern Fashion News is yours free, and every page is shown below so you can browse it right here. Issued the month World War II ended, it opens with Advance 3992 on the cover, a daytime dress with a ruffled V-neck. Inside, "Teacher's Pets" dresses teen-age girls for the new school year, and "Autumn Silhouette" presents three Advance designs as featured in Mademoiselle, "The Magazine for Smart Young Women." The two-page "Figure Flattering Fashions for Fall" spread runs from a dressmaker coat to a tailored suit with tuxedo revers. "Teen-Age Pretties" offers slips, pajamas, a housecoat, and a skating set ("Start Xmas sewing early"). "Things That Count" gathers blouses, skirts, a halter and pettiskirt, and men's shorts that are "so hard to buy these days." The back page, "'Makings' for the Younger Set," carries the store imprint of Schuster's in Milwaukee. Teen-age patterns sold for 15 cents and the rest for 25 cents.
