Allers Pattern Magazine 25 Mars 1925
Since I don’t have anything new to show you just yet I decided to post some pics of another one of my “Allers Pattern Magazines”.
And look! The cover are in color!
Sewing instructions and pattern layouts.
And look there is patterns to.
Hm, wounder which lines to use…
This right one is adorable.
I need to make this jacket someday.
Allers Pattern Journal 12 maj 1912
While I’m full steam ahead working on the next HSF project, I figured I give you a close-up of another Allers patterns journals.
This one’s from maj 1912.
Two lovely day/walking dresses.
Love the intricate collar.
Some crocheting ideas.
Crocketed lace on dress.
Some simple needlework patterns.
And some children’s fashion.
A really long coat. I also like the strapping golf player in the background.
Allers Pattern Magazine 9 Mars 1913
I think it is time for yet another look at my (slowly) growing collection of “Allers Patterns Magazines”.
This magazine is from Mars 9th 1913.
Three lovely daywear outfits.
Love the cut of this blouse – sailor with a twist. I will definetly make it someday.
Embrodery and knotting designs.
And an ad for a fashionable shaped dressform. “What every lady should own” is the headline. But I do think it is a bit funny that the from is so extreamly S-shaped, and the rest of the fashions in the magazine is more slender straight lined. Guess the dressform manufacturer didn’t quite keep up with the shifting fashion.
Collars and crocketing patterns.
Love the flowery collars, and there even is a litle bonnet in the pic.
The center fold of eye-candy dresses.
Three darling everyday dresses. Perhaps the right one even will work for dinner.
Great hat.
Young misses dresses.
Awsome ridinghabit and picture.
Embrodery letters.
And the final page with childrens clothing.
Young adults/theenagers
Allers Pattern Journal 26 jan 1913
and since we’re still on the subject of early 20th century: Here comes another view of my recently accuired “Allers Patterns Magzines”.
“Allers Mönster-tidning 26 jan 1913”.
Close up of front page.
All of these dresses looks so comfortable. Even the coat look like it is really easy to wear.
Some knitting patterns and tips.
I just couldn’t resist incluing this add, its hillarious.
It tells you about this amazing beverege called “Hunyadi Ja’nos” to get you “bowels movin”, just drink one full glas a day.
And some embrodery and knitting tips.
Take a look at this tapestry of a hunting party chasing the deer through the woods.
Oh those pretty dresses.
Love the draping on the left gowns skirt.
So beautiful.
Contrasting belts, big draping sleeves and trailing trains – heaven.
The right one in light creame and deep reed… drool.
Great shapes on these skirts.
More knitting patterns.
“Suggestions on tapestries”
Childrens fashion.
A litle boy-man with bowler and everyting.
Sailor suits and sweet dresses.
Misses dresses.
Pretty collars and lacing insertins.
Allers Pattern Journal 20 okt 1907
Last week my first real “ancent/vintage” items arrived in the mail. Three copies of “Allers pattern magazine” from early 20th century.
I must confess I’m in love with them all. And I think I might developed a crushing need to get my hands on lots (all) of these fashion magazines.
And today I will give you a closer look at one of them. Hopfully you will find them as wounderful and lovely as I do.
“Allers Mönster-tidning 20 ok 1907”
Some lovely separates: skirts, shirtwaists and a fur jacket at the bottom.
Embrodery and home decor. Not my cup of tea, but pretty non the less.
Winter dresses to die for.
Lookig at this pictures makes me dream of ice-skating and winter walks. Lets take a closer look.
I adore this whole outfit: the hat, the muff, the fur trimed skirt – I will definetly try to make this one someday.
Two beatiful gowns with lovely sleeves and decorations.
A mother and child (makes me want a litle one, just to dress in dresses like this.)
Elegance overload. I can’t decide which one I like the best, they are both so lovely. Perhaps will just have to make them both…
Some more formal gowns. Love the lace treatment on the light skirt.
Beautiful.
Looks warm and cosy. I do however think I would feel very old and shapeless in a cape like this.
This next page is full of sewing tips and instructions for the cape shown in the left corner. The headline on the page is “Husliga sysslor” (domestic chores).
A love this scheme of childrens clothes.
Pretty young ladies.
I adore the short knickers and long socks worn by the boys.
And the final page is also dedicated to childrens clothing.
Look at that lovely jacket and the kick as attitude on the girl. You wouldn’t mess with her would you.
Some essential night gowns and a cute litle nightcap.
And finaly two sweet school girls in striped dresses and hats.
