## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An incredibly helpful book
*by M***Y on February 8, 2012*

+ Explains why you do certain steps (not all the time but enough to greater understand some techniques)+ Techniques that I haven't thought to alter to suit the construction+ Step by step guiding is incredibly helpful+ The way that it's written is like a teacher guiding you as you sew; concise, conversational and encouraging.+ Line drawings are plentiful and highly useful- The photographs are terrible. Grainy and blurred, they don't help very much. I feel like taking my own as I do my first suit and slipping them in the pages as I go- I didn't like the paper the book was printed on. It's too thin and 'chalky', reminds me of a roll of fax paper/ On pages 104 and 105, a small paragraph repeats itself. If the authors wanted to stress the point, I'd thought they would have reworded it./ Can feel like it glances over topics which might turn off someone who is looking for a holy bible/ encyclopedia of suit construction. Has a small section on alteration for example and the style of suit is left to you with typical feature variations (the usual pocket shapes etc).I'm looking forward to making my first full suit using this book. It isn't a beginners book but is within the understanding of a hobby sewer (at least); you have to understand a lot of the terminology used and I think you'd have to be comfortable with your pattern making skills to visualise the pieces involved. The little tips like on page 101 about shortening the right front of a double breasted jacket so it doesn't hand lower than the left side remind me of the many word of mouth tips my sewing teachers taught us. They make a world of difference and there are many to consider.My expectations have been met and then beyond. A great read and fantastic resource.*EDIT* There are a few more sentences in the book that do repeat themselves but looking back I think it wasn't necessary to reword the lines. It reminded me of teachers that wanted you to be mindful of the techniques and made it all the more endearing. It gives the book personality and a human touch.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great reference book
*by R***S on April 12, 2014*

This is one of those books you shouldn't throw away. I believe it is in print again, however if you can get your hands on an original do. I managed to get an original and it adds that aesthetic feel to what you do.It is a image heavy book, drawn image, so expect to use some of your spatial thinking to understand how things are actually built. However, I found they were pretty straight forward once you actually gave it a go.I would recommend this book for anyone doing tailoring, or suite making in general. When working away at a part of a suite you can always pull this out and look how they did it back then.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great principles for tailoring
*by S***S on January 25, 2025*

I bought this book when I was back at school doing my degree. It’s a great book to get to know knowledge on tailoring clothes. Perfect for making suits and pants the right way
