Fashions for May from 1960 Advance

I found this little brochure from the Advance pattern company tucked into a vintage pattern I opened and thought you might like to see what was in style for May 1960.


This next one was the center section and overlaps in the next two shots:



Note how this next one is called "Chanel-like":

Ok, if you could go shopping and pick one which would it be?  I like the cover one, 9356, that Debbie Reynolds is wearing (designed by Edith Head).  I also like the asymetrical buttoning 9363 and the fuller skirt 9361 that's beside it.  I would have to hope they had good pattern sales back then since I can't make up my mind.

I'd go for 9361. It's sensible and pretty.
