DESCRIPTION

Stitching La Mode: Patterns and Dressmaking from Fashion Plates of 1785-1795
brings to life women’s unique and extravagant fashions of 1785-1795 in a
beautifully illustrated and accessible way.

The book consists of scaled patterns directly based on original French, German
and English fashion plates drafted according to period-accurate shapes. The
patterns encompass the full look presented in each fashion plate from garments
to accessories. These are accompanied by a color image of the corresponding
fashion plate, straightforward, illustrated directions for recreating the
outfits, information on the material used and modelled reproductions of each
plate to demonstrate what they would look like in "real life". The book focuses
on unique styles often seen in fashion plates but rarely – if ever – patterned
before, making this a fresh and exciting yet historically accurate take on late
eighteenth-century fashion.

Stitching La Mode significantly expands the understanding of transitional
fashions from the late eighteenth century with concrete, physical examples of
styles, perfectly suited for costume technicians and makers, costume historians
and hobby costumers and re-enactors.
