Apparel Making in Fashion Design

This text offers a complete picture of the process of individual garment construction following
the exact techniques used in the industry. The unique feature of this book is in the
presentation of each garment as a whole concept. With numerous diagrams and easy-tofollow
instructions, students master the principles of design and flat pattern to create an
individual item of apparel such as a skirt, dress, or jacket. Each chapter begins with the
introduction of a basic sloper and follows with an explanation of the whole production
process making a garment from pattern drafting to garment construction, including
lining, interfacing, and markers. The balance of each chapter covers techniques for altering
separate pattern pieces.
