Ratner's Up-to-Date Method of Designing (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book on dressmaking and tailoring, published at the turn of the 20th century, reflects the transition between hand-crafted and mass-produced clothing. The transition reflected in this book shifted the focus of dressmaking from an activity conducted in the home to being a professional skill. Created by the author as a guide for students of their eponymous dressmaking school, it is an extensive guidebook for how to create patterns for a wide variety of garments, including capes, skirts, coats, and sleeves, for both women and children. It also outlines the step-by-step process of how to take measurements and transform them into sewing patterns. The instructions are detailed and, according to the author, "failure is impossible". The book is notable for its detailed diagrams and the variety of garments it addresses, making it a valuable resource for aspiring dressmakers and tailors. In addition, because of the attention given to the process of pattern making, it provides insight into the ways that clothing was made at the time and remains an indispensable resource for historians of fashion and costuming. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781333608675_0
