Pattern Behavior by Natalie Kossar


This hilarious retro book is a compilation of vintage McCalls Pattern Company patterns from the archives coupled with satirical commentary—presented as if the models themselves were speaking. It speaks to a past generation of seamstresses, and their offspring, who wore these iconic, handmade outfits for better or worse. Wielding witty, sharp-tongued, fashion insults, these women had something to say! This truly original nostalgic book will leave you in stitches as these well-known drawings come to life.
