Customer Reviews

Lots of historical fashion details.

25 historical patterns and their construction up close in detail. Plenty of informative side topics about mid-late 18th century clothing and people who wore them. Lovely photos of extant garments along with clear and detailed illustrations. I'm glad it includes some quilting and embroidery patterns, as well.
