Family commitments haven't left me with much sewing (or knitting) time this week, so here's a short, picture-heavy post about the second batch of Vogue Paris Original patterns. (You can read about the first batch
here.) New Paris patterns were still front-page news, but not the main story - the featured pattern on the cover was Vogue Special Design 4008.

The Paris Original patterns did not appear until page 30.

The same eight designers featured, but this time they each had two designs. The main colour illustration was still accompanied by black and white sketches, but there were no longer any notes.

| Lanvin, 1073 and 1064 |
 |
| Piguet, 1066 and 1059 |
 |
| Schiaparelli, 1068 qnd 1061 |
 |
| Molyneux, 1071 and 1058 |
 |
| Paquin, 1060 and 1067 |

| Balmain, 1063 and 1072 |
 |
| Fath, 1065 and 1069 |

At some point, I will look at how the stable of Paris Original designers changed over the years. But hopefully next week I will have some actual sewing to post about.
