Simplicity Fashion Preview 1963
1963. What a mix of styles. The Mid-Century full skirt was making way for the slimmer Mod styles that were soon to come. I have scanned and posted two new Simplicity Fashion Preview pattern catalogs from April and October 1963. See them here.

1958 Singer Measurement Chart - Fitting for Vintage Sewing
In 1956 the Pattern Industry issued new standards for pattern sizing. In 1958 the Singer Sewing Machine Company distributed this free chart for determining your perfect pattern size.
Standard sizing has changed since then, and many believe it is time for yet another change in what is considered standard sizing. But until then, here is a wonderful guide put out by The Simplicity, McCall's and Butterick Pattern Companies ©1996 to guide your pattern purchase.
