This comprehensive book is ideal for both beginners and advanced students, aspiring fashion designers, or anyone interested in learning the basics of patternmaking to enhance their fashion design knowledge. Featuring step-by-step, clear, and understandable photographs for every assignment, this book presents a unique approach to patternmaking. It immerses you in a classroom experience, with visuals of each step right before your eyes, making the assignments easy to grasp and follow along.

Each chapter is divided into sections that mimic a traditional fashion college program, covering topics such as Draping and Trueing the Basic Bodice and Skirt, drafting a Basic Sleeve, Dart Manipulations, Pivoting, and Slash & Spread, as well as more advanced projects like the Torso Block, Sheath Dress, Collars, Sleeves, Skirts, and Pants. Essentially, this book encompasses not only several semesters of a fashion college's program but could also be viewed as an entire curriculum.
