Modes Royal Fabulous Patterns - 1951

This is a single page from a Modes Royale catalog from 1951. Don't I wish I had the rest of this!
The "breathtakingly beautiful" gown would look right at home on any red carpet today. And that two piece dress has the best peplum ever. The "cutaway suit" looks tailored, but also gives such an hourglass shape...good design shows.

  1. Oh, the suits are stunning! The gown is of course gorgeous as well, but I'd get a lot more wear out of the suits.

  2. Those suits are great, but as soon as I'm tall and thin I'm wearing that gown! ;- )
