3.0 out of 5 stars High-quality tailoring advice, low-quality book, 1 Sep 2008
By frockstar (London, UK) - See all my reviews
The authors' knowledge of tailoring is undoubtedly second to none, and this book takes you step by step through the entire process of tailoring a women's suit, with specific, easy-to-understand instructions and professional techniques. But buyer beware: the quality of this book is appalling for the price. It is B&W throughout. The photographs resemble poor-quality photocopies and are grainy, dark and hard to make out; the illustrations are rudimentary line drawings that occasionally border on the childish. If you are happy following well-written instructions, this book is a valuable addition to your sewing library; if you rely more on visual aids, it might not be the book for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars A superb tailoring book for begining and intermediate tailor, 29 Jul 1997
By A Customer
An excellent book with clear, well explained diagrams and photographs. The book takes you through the full procedure for tailoring women's jackets, skirts and pants.
