Product Information
Aims at teaching the reader how to assess her body type and then choose clothing. The process involves an individual's design pattern, that is made up of lines, shapes, proportions, body particulars, scale, colours and textures. How they fit together in harmony, and how an individual infuses them with her creativity, is what authors call 'style'.Product Identifiers
