Nothing epitomizes the look of the 1950s more for women than the
hour-glass silhouette of the tightly fitted bodice and full skirt.
This ubiquitous style - first introduced in 1947 with Dior's New
Look - was so widely adopted by the mid-50s that it came to define
the decade. This practical book introduces and explores the styles
and construction techniques used in the 1950s. Step-by-step
instructions and photographs demonstrate how to achieve a
well-finished and authentic look using equipment easily obtainable
at home. Chapters explain the processes from fabric selection,
cutting out and preparation through to garment assembly using
traditional techniques for creating the silhouette of the day.
