Le Petit écho de la mode, no. 23, vol. 17, 9 juin 1895, Paris. Patron gratuit de mante luchonnaise. Ville de Paris / Bibliothèque Forney

Tracé du patron de mante. — 1. Moitié de la manche. — 2. Col. Patron coupé pour taille moyenne, pouvant convenir à toutes les tailles.

(11.) Mante Luchonnaise. — Nous offrons à nos lectrices un patron de vêtement utile pour se couvrir le soir au bord de la mer, ou à la campagne ; de mante courte il peut devenir un manteau long en ajoutant la longueur voulue. Sa forme est très simples, un rang ou deux de fronces à l’encolure, monté sur un col évasé coupé de biais, il se fait en tissu des Pyrénées, léger et chaud, de nuance « biche ». Un galon moutonneux et une frange boule en laine entourent ce vêtement, un double rang de cette garniture simule une seconde pèlerine.

Mantle pattern. — 1. Half of the sleeve. — 2. Col. Pattern cut for medium size, suitable for all sizes.

(11.) Luchonnaise Mantle. — We offer our readers a useful clothing pattern to cover themselves in the evening by the sea, or in the countryside; From a short coat it can become a long coat by adding the desired length. Its shape is very simple, a row or two of gathers at the neckline, mounted on a flared collar cut on the bias, it is made of Pyrenees fabric, light and warm, in a “doe” shade. A sheepskin braid and a ball fringe in wool surround this garment, a double row of this trim simulates a second cape.

Matériaux: 3 mètres de tissu grande largeur, 7 mètres frange et galon. Si l’on fait cette mante longue on supprimera la garniture du bas.
