A great book for anyone with sewing, patternmaking, and clothing design experience. Not a novice book, however. You need to understand clothing design and patternmaking terminology to use this book. Well written, well illustrated.
AMAZING! and not written by grandma, god love her.

This book is awesome!!! I'm 26, have sewn from patterns (and modified patterns) since I was 10. But with this book, I've found a more satisfying and immediate approach. I read reviews of several draping books, and this seemed the most straightforward. Since it was created specifically for an class, it if full of instructions and specifics. Most of the excercises show a bulleted list of steps, broken down simply, that you just have to jump in and do. If you try to read for comprehension, you'll never get it. Very hands on, and very to the point........ .......I mean, there's no BS from a grandma who taught herself to drape boxy quilted blazers, and then gives tips on where and how to bedazzle said blazers. Which is the approach that about 99% of sewing books take. I mean to say that it is timeless, ageless, and just what you need to feel confident in making whatever you imagine. Order this book! Buy a form and some supplies and show us what you've got!!!
very informartive!

This book contains allot of basic information on draping. The instructions are thorough and are acompanied by visuals, for extra comprehension. It also has a section dedicated to draping knits, a real plus! My understanding of the draping method, and therefore my skill, has improved on account of this book.
Exactly what you need to know

I studied at FIT in NY, and this was required reading for my first draping course. It seems that a careful read of this book alone could have taught me what I needed to know. It takes practice, but boy, if you want perfect results, follow this book to the letter and it will get you there!
