Synopsis

Excerpt from The Modern Designer: A Work Showing the Natural Way of Producing Garments That Are Perfectly Balanced, Stylish and Graceful

The authors of these works write principally upon theory. They either withhold their knowl edge from the trade intentionally, hoping to gain your patronage in another way, or they are writing things of which they are entirely incapable of discussing.

My object will be to give you a work with all my practical experience, a work which will enable you to produce perfect fitting garments, giving all the points necessary for cutting garments for differ ently shaped individuals, and for altering garments that do not fit or hang properly.
