Description

  • This book provides a deep-dive into the dressmaking of the late Eighteenth Century.
  • By combining the author's experience with drafting patterns from surviving eighteenth-century garments with fashion plates and period-correct reproduction methods this book offers a glimpse at what these vanished fashions actually looked like in real-life and provide the means for others to do the same.
  • Offers historical context on the socio-political, cultural, and economics factors behind the fashion revolution in the late eighteenth century.

    Absolutely Fantastic

    This was my first time ordering from SciFier but it definitely won't be my last. When it comes to buying books online the packaging needs to be good, SciFier were great they used bubble wrap to make sure they arrived perfect. Amazing range of books that majority are lower priced than most book retailers. Wonderful service, I'll definitely be recommending to everyone. Thank you.

    My favourite pick for manga

    Great delivery to EU, no issues with customs. Very good packaging. A nice selection of manga and, so far, the best prices I could find :)

    Great as always

    Same old, same old. Amazing experience, great packaging, shipping was faster since it was a bit smaller and check out was smooth as butter. I have now put myself on a buy allowance because I cannot be trusted lol.
