Vogue's own envelope artwork for 6040 shows the design in both a graphic houndstooth check and a solid chartreuse, illustrating exactly this kind of interchangeable, build-a-wardrobe styling that defined the era's approach to office and daytime dressing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection data-section=\"illustration\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIllustration\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cover illustration has been digitally restored and enhanced by Judy Yates to highlight the original fashion artwork while preserving the character and artistry of this historic Vogue pattern envelope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection data-connection-type=\"default\" data-section=\"connections\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eConnections\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pattern is part of our ongoing exhibit, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.vintage4me2.com\/collections\/always-in-vogue\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlways in Vogue\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e - a growing collection celebrating the fashion-forward spirit of Vogue's home sewing patterns.
