I have been sewing professionally for over twenty years, and this book is the most complete gown design book I have ever seen. It includes a croquis (mannequin)and comprehensive interchangable parts to trace and design the gown of your dreams. It is perfect to copy and show clients so they can see the options that are available to them, and visualize the finished product. It also includes guides and instructions for most simple construction processes for gowns. My favorites are bustling and roses. I will use this book for years.
I was 64 years old and about to have a church wedding. I went to all of the local stores to look for a gown. All I found were for younger people and most were white. I typed in informal wedding gowns, found an ivory made just the way I wanted it. I measured myself according to the guide. When it came about 2 weeks later, it fit perfect, even the length. I e-mailed the person that made it, asking about the slip I should get, shoes that she thought would go best with the gown. She helped me with everything I asked for in a very timely matter. It was a wonderful experience. The gown was $98.00, worth much more to me. Also, ordered the slip and shoes from e-bay, even my husbands wedding band.
