Hi Zuzana, There is a bit of everything in this book, but ,mostly inventory, who made what etc. If you are looking for technical things (patterns, construction tips, stc.) then, IMHO, this is not a book that you would be interested in buying. Stick to the P of F (#4 was released in 2008).

I love Janet Arnold's Patterns of Fashion and if QEWU is something of this sort, I would definitely go for it. So, my question is, how much is there about construction? How much text (theory)? How many pictures and drawings? I am looking for something that will help me recreate the costumes, not a theoretical text about what was worn. Thank you for any advice, Zuzana _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
