Corsets and Crinolines by Norah Waugh
Corsets and Crinolines
"Corsets and Crinolines" by Norah Waugh
The classic reference text for costume and corset makers. Includes patterns for all manner of corsets, crinolines, bustles etc. Some experience of pattern draughting is required to scale and transfer them for use but the appendix contains useful information on both draughting and construction.
Plenty of historical background and contemporary quotes, cartoons and advertising from the 16th century onwards.
A great resource book, our old copy is getting really dog eared through use.
