By A Customer

If you plan to study costume them thihs book is a must. With diagrams on construction tips and things you need to know it's a must have. Another of her books the costume technicians handbook to acomany this one is another if you plan to work in this area or just have an intrest. I have so far found it one of the most useful in my collection and cheapest from Amazon.
