Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Irving Solero Photographs (illustrator). Most photographs are from The Fashion Institute of Technology NYC. Clean tight fresh unmarked strong jacket boards text. Perhaps a viewer or two. Very clear photographs of clothes done on dummies so one can see the dress MAKING rather than the glitz of Vogue etc. Very interesting perhaps to a dressmaker today.
