During Queen Victoria's long reign there were constant, often
subtle, changes to men's clothing in the large, diverse and growing
population. This practical book guides you through the male
fashions of the time and includes eighteen garments typical of the
era. Each project is carefully grounded in historical research,
while traditional tailoring techniques are simplified for the
modern costume maker. It is an essential handbook that describes
fabrics and tools for pattern drafting, tailoring and costume
construction, and explains how to get the best results from each.
It covers a wide variety of gentleman's attire adaptable for
different occupations and social status, including assorted shirts,
trousers, breeches, a tailcoat, a jacket, a frockcoat and several
waistcoats. There is a full set of patterns for each outfit, along
with clear, full colour construction photographs and finally, the
author suggests how outfits can be adapted to fit different sizes
and characters, and gives practical insights into the making
process.
