French vs English Burda magazine Are patterns the same?
Montarville Advanced Beginner ON CANADA Member since 2/22/11 Posts: 109	Login to reply to this post Like this post Date: 7/3/12 9:15 AM For the first time this month, I bought Burda Style magazine in French instead of in English. There are two patterns that I don't remember seeing in the English version when I flipped through the pages in the store. They are dress 133, a vintage pattern from 1950, and dress 190, a downloadable pattern, here presented by actress Julie Deply. Could one of you with the English version confirm whether those patterns are in the English version or not? Because if they are not, from now on, it will opt for the French version...

I only have English editions when an issue is lost in the mail, otherwise I have French issues. But I have read here that some of the EU issues have a "masschnitt" or something ie a pattern you can order in your own size only. I would be grateful to see the Julie Delpy pattern *wink, wink* I'm sure someone will chime in with the correct info. Maybe GBK who is in Germany? ------ Fashion Maté, where I blog about what I (eventually) sew : http://fashionmate.blogspot.com Addicted to Pinterest? Me too! : http://pinterest.com/lakaribane/

But I think you caught an omission on burda's website! Dress 133 is missing there although it is in the collection of pics that peadane had dug out in this thread. Squirrellypoo posted the dress there so I'd speculate they just forgot to include it in the July collection on the website. ------ Happy Sewing!

In German language: 'Hinweis: Bitte beachten Sie, dass Sie aufgrund der Größe und Länge des Kleides beim Download mit etwa 100 Seiten rechnen müssen!' ------ Happy Sewing!
