November Manequim No. 2

A feast of Manequim magazines is turning up at the moment - Manequim No. 616 arrived this week and it is the best yet.   
I have to confess I haven't made anything from these yet.   The ones I want to make involve some pattern grading to make them my size so they've been put aside for a tracing and grading mood. This edition, however, has quite a few that won't need grading up. 

So many great tops that don't look too complicated to make.    
This edition has the regular section recreating clothes worn by TV people.   
And another section with party clothes on one of the actresses, which includes this magnificent silver dress and the cover outfit. 
An inspired by nature section with some casual basics.
There is a really nice selection of larger sizes inspired by Queen Latifah.
A section of pretty party gear. 
And finally, the mix and match section which shows some of the ones I haven't shown (they have black stars next to them).
