This could be a good basis for a woven t-shirt pattern. And the yoke seam could allow for some very nice mixing of fabrics or playing with prints. I do think the cuffs and neckline are nice details though. This top looks way more voluminous on the model than it does in the line drawing. I find the tops this month to be decent, but a bit less inspired than the jackets and dresses… I think we aren’t quite to the point where an apron would be considered a cool fashion accessory, but if you made the dress in blue and the apron in white you’d have a pretty cute casual Belle cosplay! I have thoughts about the 1920s inspired photo shoot that Burda’s done in this issue, but I’m going to save those thoughts for the comments.Īnd, well, an apron isn’t a dress, but it’s sown with the dress. It’s simple, but it’s so cute! I really love the styling of the plaid version, and I think it could be a really versatile piece in a fall wardrobe. I’m not overly excited by the more simple version either… it’s a bit of a miss for me. The details get a bit lost in the print, so it’s hard to tell if the feature is cute or just weird. I’m less impressed with this button front dress.
I also think the styling is very smart – it’s ready for work, but also a casual fall day. Love this! The neckline treatment is so cute! And I really like the angled hemlines. The silhouette rides the line between being fitted and relaxed, and I think that will appeal to a lot of people. The slightly wide v-neck is really nice, and I’m sure we can all get behind the pockets. The dresses this month are ready for fall:īurda’s already given us a lot of silhouettes that are really similar to this dress, but I still really love this. I love how much Burda has embraced the super structured silhouettes with lots of seam lines in this issue. The collar is a great shape and the many small buttons are also a great detail. It’s been a while since we’ve had a vest, and this one is fab! I really love the structure and shape of this design, and I think it looks equally great over the sleek turtleneck and the softer blouse. Ok, so, I know this is just a rectangle with a neck hole, but it’s a really cute rectangle with a neck hole! Also, my new office is really cold and I feel like this might be a socially acceptable way to wear a snuggie in an office setting. I think I would have passed by the line drawing, but I really like the way this looks on the model. Burda is really covering all of its bases here.
I really love all the seam lines in the jacket, and the extra seam that creates that really strong shoulder is an interesting feature.Īnother great blazer! If the first pattern was a bit too harsh for your taste, this one has softer lines and a much easier to sew shawl collar.Īnd here is a more relaxed blazer.
Love this! The interestingly geometric lapel is apparently a major trend this season and I’m here for it. Of course we have to start off with the coats and jackets this month: She also considered women to be actors in society’s evolution, motivating them to invest themselves in key issues, gain their financial independence and position themselves as equal to men.There’s a lot of good stuff to check out, so let’s dive in! Her position was strong : she wanted only the best for her readers, held them in esteem, and felt they deserved to finally be regarded as strong and independent women. Lazareff declared that “ fashion must take to the streets”, and so it did through the fashion-forward features that she ran in the magazine. With the column “ELLE asks you to speak”, women’s interests and convictions were taken into account for the first time.
The cornerstone of the magazine was its underlying tone of “Irony in seriousness, and seriousness in frivolity.” Inspired by her time spent in New York during World War II working as a journalist for major media titles, Lazareff began to develop her own concept for a women’s magazine whose key editorial approach was to provide women with exclusive and unparalleled access to fashion and beauty, while maintaining a closeness to its readers. On November 21st, 1945, the Russian-born, Paris-raised Hélène Lazareff launched a modern women’s magazine that would become a staple in every woman’s home in France, and later, around the world.
