Patternmaking for Fashion Design (3rd Edition)
By Helen Joseph Armstrong
From The Back Cover:
This quintessential guide to patternmaking offers
comprehensive coverage, clear illustrations and easy-to-follow instructions,
providing users with all the relevant information necessary to create design
patterns with accuracy regardless of their complexity. Covers the three
steps in the development of design patterns—dart manipulation, added fullness,
and contouring—with a central theme that all designs are based on one,
or more of these three major patternmaking and design principles. Includes
a fashion sketch for each project with an analysis of the design, and focuses
on pattern plot and manipulation for developing the patterns. Illustrates
several methods for knock-offs, and dedicates new sections on fitting corrections
for the basic pattern set and the four pant foundation; menswear; patternmaking
for bias-cut garments; revised drafting instructions and standard measurement
charts; how to modify the bodice to fit the different sizes of bust cups;
constructed support for strapless designs, and more. Presents additional
and more challenging design projects for the advanced reader. For dressmakers,
home
sewers, manufacturing companies, and professionals in fashion design and
fashion merchandising. |
