Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate art of millinery, offering a comprehensive guide to the craft that was essential for success in the early 20th century. The text takes the reader through the foundational skills of wire frame making, emphasizing the importance of accuracy in measurement and the artistry of expressing line. From the simple sailor hat to the more complex turban, the author breaks down the process of shaping and constructing these frames, illustrating how each wire can be manipulated to achieve a desired silhouette. A key focus is on the "facing line", a critical element in creating hats that flatter different face shapes and styles. The book also explores the crucial techniques of copying French hat designs, a practice that was central to the millinery industry of the era. Readers are guided through the process of taking notes, sketching designs, and translating these observations into wire frames that form the foundation for the finished hat. The author's expertise is evident in the detailed explanations of blocking techniques, using materials like willow and cape net to achieve the desired shape and form. This book serves as a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the historical practices of millinery, offering a glimpse into the craftsmanship and artistry that characterized the trade during a time of significant fashion evolution.
