Pattern Cutting for Women's Tailored Jackets
The term 'tailored' has changed as methods of manufacture and the retailing of clothes have evolved. This book demonstrates the range of methods used to produce garments which are described as 'tailored' jackets. It focuses on modern methods of producing clothing. It describes different approaches to 'tailored' cutting.
Millions of tailored jackets (women's business jackets) are sold every year. Yet, in spite of being amongst the most popular garments in fashion stores, there is a depressing "sameness" about them unless customers are prepared to pay for a designer jacket.
To grade very different shapes requires pattern cutting skills which are being lost as new technology replaces traditional expertise. Pattern Cutting for Women's Tailored Jackets sets out to reverse this decline by presenting practical techniques and demonstrating how exciting designer-style results can be achieved using today's technology.
