Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a guide to the art of tailoring, written for a trade audience of cutters. Its focus is on a particular system of garment construction known as the ââ Å"Standardââ  System. The author presents a detailed explanation of this system, which was clearly popular in the authorââ â¢s time, as the book is in its third edition. The ââ Å"Standardââ  System places great importance on precise measurement and attention to detail, and the author emphasizes the need for cutters to be aware of the individual peculiarities of the human body when taking measurements. The author further explores the ââ Å"Standardââ  System in the context of historical cutting practices. The book acknowledges the common tendency to overlook the importance of body posture, arguing that such an oversight leads to inaccurate garments that do not properly fit the figure. This insightful approach to tailoring demonstrates the author's deep understanding of the craft and the vital role that precise measurement plays in ensuring a garment fits not only the body's size but also its individual curves, angles, and posture. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780282403249_0
