In this practical guide, Michelle Pye demystifies the process of
making a handmade jacket. As an experienced bespoke tailor and
teacher, she explains each step of the process from making a toile
for fitting, cutting out, inserting the pockets, the application of
the sleeves and collar, through to hand finishing and pressing the
jacket. Much emphasis is placed on the preparation stage and then
the alteration steps to ensure you get a fantastic fit. As well as
explaining tailoring terms, Ladies Couture Tailoring warns of
common mistakes and describes the techniques of the trade - such as
using a clapper to absorb steam or shrinking out fullness to make
the sleeve easier to put in - so you can enjoy making your jacket
as much as wearing it. It is a rare opportunity to learn from an
experienced tailor keen to share her skills and advise you
throughout with her personal tips.
