Customer Reviews

Great Resource for High School Theater!

Costumes frequently loom large in the production of high school theater: where shall we get them? We can't afford to rent! How the heck do I make period costumes?This lovely book helps fill the gap and, when used in conjunction with Holkeboer's "Patterns for Theatrical Costumes," eases the problem of costume patterns and construction to a great degree. Highly recommended!

a concise overview

I was so happy to find this book and I've been doing costumes for twenty years. This is a concise overview of the historical periods- a starting point for doing in depth research if you're a beginner but also great as a quick reference if you already know the periods. The easy "cheat" way to sew costumes if worth the price of the book alone. Thanks to Mary Kidd for a truly useful costume resource
