ABOUT BOOK:
Norah Waugh's book has, for many years, been the definitive work of reference for teachers and students of fashion design, for dress designers, for costume makers - and anyone who is seriously interested in the history and construction of women's clothes. Each period in the history of costume has produced its own characteristic line and silhouette, and the book includes numerous patterns taken from actual dresses, many of them rare museum specimens, illustrated by line sketches of the garments themselves. There are detailed notes on the production of women's dress with diagrams from and references to early technical books and journals.

To see the content listing, please refer to pictures. All book you will receive when you will download PDF-file.

Book is in good condition with no missing or loose pages, but, please, remember that this is a vintage magazine and it shows signs of wear and cannot be perfect.

Thanks for looking!

I used to be able to take this book out at the library, then it was gone. It's nice to be able to view it again. It downloaded just fine and I am over the moon at being able to see it again. Would recommend.
