## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Copy seemed new - lots of info
*by J***O on December 7, 2024*

My copy seemed brand new and arrived quickly. Book is full of lots of sewing tips we use in many types of sewing. Good illustrations with clear explanations- first thing I brushed up on was bias binding. Valuable info.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gold Mine!!
*by B***S on February 20, 2020*

Paperback, used book in "Like New" condition. After spending lots of time reviewing other books on "Couture" sewing, I decided on this book when I read several well written and considerate reviews who spoke well of the book. My reason for buying a book on couture sewing was to increase my knowledge and sewing skills. I've been a home seamstress since I was 6/7 years old; and mostly self taught (with some input from my Mother and 1 year of Home Economics).This book is hard to describe clearly for someone else. It feels/reads like a history lesson, a documentary feature, an upper university level class all being told by a rather engaging individual (Roberta C. Carr). There are definitions and clarifications; examples of how to tos and why's, and yes the examples are in black and white. You will have to read and try to comprehend without a video.For me, I feel a bit "shell shocked" it's so much quality information to digest and... This is GOOD! Although I just got the book today (Feb 19, 2020) I know I will enjoy it for years. Very Much! Even if I will not be able to use everything in it immediately the examples are wonderfully presented. I am thrilled to be increasing my Sewing library with such a unique book. And if I learn only ONE thing from this book (besides who Madame Madeleine Vionnet was), it's that fabric grain is everything! Your fabric must be absolutely on the true grain for couture results.Maybe not everyone will find this book to their taste visually; but I cannot imagine anyone serious about the subject of couture dismissing it out of hand.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fashion Rewind
*by L***4 on January 8, 2019*

The book was written some time ago, and the fashions are 70-80's, BUT I still love this book. The Author writes as if you are visiting with her in her studio and she shares a lot of information about what makes a dress coutoure. And even though the fashions are dated, I did see things that I could incorporate in my designs today. I feel that in order to know where to go from here, you need to know where you've been, and this book does that. Glad I bought it.
