This Sunday I have scans from one of my pattern catalogs, the mail order company, Marian Martin. This catalog has no date, but judging by the fashions I'd say 1935-37.
Enjoy.

oooooohhhh...I love these! Especially the ones in the first picture!
ReplyDeleteMy FAVE!! 30's Mail Order Marian Martin!! Swoon... ;^)
ReplyDeleteThey're so lovely. I find these styles so much more attractive and yes, sexy, than any strapless minidress you find at a mall nowadays. I especially love the "V" neck in picture four.
ReplyDeleteI love that last picture, with all the mean gals hanging around, waiting for poor Cinders to finish the vacuum cleaning before they can party!
