From the elegant bias-cut gown to the light and liberating day
dress, this book looks at and celebrates the historic silhouettes,
fabric cuts and contextual history of 1930s clothing. Equipped with
instructions, patterns and enchanting photos, it explores the
history of 1930s fashion, and explains how to make a range of
versatile thirties-inspired garments. It takes ten examples of
1930s garments, ranging from a lingerie set to a heavy coat, to
create a thirties-inspired capsule collection. The patterns are
taken from original 1930s garments, with each piece being carefully
measured and the patterns scaled down accordingly. Step-by-step
instructions for making each garment are complemented by close-up
photographs of historic details and decoration. A beautiful and
practical book, it will inspire designers, dressmakers and lovers
of vintage fashion who want to express themselves through timeless
and elegant style.
