Secret Stuff

Today I did some sewing from each of these magazines:
On the left, the November 1982 issue, which is the first Burda magazine I ever bought new. On the right, the December 1991 issue, which I picked up when the local library had a sale.

In 1982 Burda moden was in German except for the front cover. By 1991 it was just Burda, and was all English except the pattern sheets. The fashions had changed, but you can see from the covers that the themes in each issue are quite similar. '82 has "evening fashion", while '91 has "festive partywear". '82 has skiwear, while '91 has showsuits. But I wasn't sewing evening wear or snowsuits today!
