Book Reviews of Costume Close Up: Clothing Construction and Pattern, 1750-1790
Book Review: A great detailed review of fashion of the 18th cent.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great book with full page photos and detailed diagrams and information text. This covers about a dozen men and woman's garments from the time period of 1750's to 1790's.
The only points of improvement would be that I want the author to do more garments and more volumes. Also to include more regional and stylistic differences.
This is a great book for research and collection.
