Recommended
I bought this book in order to understand how to fit trousers better, it is a good book and I do recommend it.having photos instead of drawings of fitting issues is a great help. It is an excellent book for fitting the bodice, skirt and dress, the shortest part of the book is devoted to trousers and I feel it is not quite as comprehensive as it could be. However it is a great deal better than nothing at all, so I do recommend it, you may just find that you need something extra.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
