The autumn/fall release of patterns is on the US Simplicity site now.
Nothing of interest for me in the Vogue patterns. As usual if you are young, thin and going to a party there's plenty.
Even the Marcy Tilton pattern doesn't appeal as it's for a bog standard kimono and I think everyone who wants a kimono pattern has one by now .
Some of the Simplicity patterns as PDFs may be of interest especially as they are on sale at the moment - works out at about £4.10 each. I bought the Elaine Heigl coat pattern - I think it could be quite nice but it is shown on the website in some horrible fabrics - often the way! I've also got a 1950s coat pattern. The Digital offering from the Simplicity family is so clunky! First of all I had trouble finding my order in my digital patterns section of my account and then downloading the pdfs is often quite difficult for some reason. Also they still only do their pdfs in A4. Oh and Adobe Acrobat decided to update itself in the middle of the download! Sorry - perhaps this should be in the Rant section.
