Butterick Fashion Magazine, 1939


This digest sized magazine listed the latest fashions available for the home dressmaker in Butterick patterns.   The dress pictured on the cover is described inside as having touches of lingerie embroidery around the neck, and at the hem the latest fashion fad - a hint of petticoat!  Since I've never seen the second fashion mentioned elsewhere I have to conclude it never really caught on.
