Fashion Patternmaking Techniques: How to Make Jackets, Coats and Cloaks for Women and Men: Volume 3

The 3rd book in course on pattern design for patternmakers, tailors, garment technologists and designers. Divided into 7 chapters, this volume is dedicated to the study of various types of outerwear for women: jackets, coats, overcoats, and capes. It also includes a chapter on men's outerwear and an in-depth look at a number of technical forms used in production. Like the two previous books, all patterns are clearly and simply illustrated to provide professionals and students with a comprehensive understanding of patternmaking and to allow anyone using this series to quickly master the interpretation of fashion sketches.
