Every now and again an item will come into Antique Alley that simply screams my name. When my friend Alicia is working and those sorts of items come in, she often tucks them behind the counter for me until I am able to see it. And thank goodness she did that for this stunning pattern magazine from Modes Royale, dating to 1944.
This is just a handful of the stunning dresses in the magazine, and I am not kidding when I say that there isn’t a dress in here that I wouldn’t buy.
Thank you for posting photos of this, just amazing! I recently did a post about 1940s studded platform peep toe shoes, but had a hard time finding photos. Your next image shoes a sweet pair!

Beautiful illustrations, very detailed and eye catching.
Gorgeous!
I really love the last dress on the left, with it’s beautiful scoop neckline and peter pan collar.
