This innovative and breathtakingly detailed book from the V&A
presents dress patterns, construction details, embroidery, and
making instructions (including a knitting pattern and lacemaking)
for 15 garments and accessories from a 17th-century British woman's
wardrobe. Step-by-step drawings of the construction sequence and
scale patterns for each garment enable readers to accurately
reconstruct them. There are scale diagrams for making linen and
metal thread laces, silk braids, and embroidery designs. Multiple
photographs, close-up construction details, and X-ray photography
reveal the hidden elements of the clothes, the number of layers,
and the stitches used inside. This first book in a new series takes
the physical examination and study of historical clothing to a new
depth and degree of detail, using the expertise of designers,
tailors, and makers from London's Shakespeare's Globe Theatre.
