Synopsis
In this second volume of Stays and Corsets , Mandy Barrington continues to create historical patterns for a modern body shape. This book contains all new corset patterns with a range of silhouettes that span over 300 years, from the late 16th century to the early 20th century. The corset patterns are generated from an original historical garment and have been designed for a wide range of female figures and sizes. The technique of flat pattern drafting your stays or corset will enable you to change the shape of the wearer to create an authentic historic silhouette. All calculations have been worked out for the reader and are provided in easy-to-read tables, which avoids extremely difficult, time-consuming and inaccurate re-sizing of historical patterns. Some prior knowledge of pattern drafting is helpful; however, each pattern has step-by-step instructions supported by clear diagrams that will take you through each stage of the pattern drafting process. The final result is an accurate period stays or corset pattern for your model.

- j***g (10)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe book arrived in good condition and was what the seller listed it as, product and condition wise. Shipping was slow, but that’s expected when you live in Alaska and the seller communicated with me very well throughout the process. I recommend this seller! Also, a word for the product itself, if you’re looking for reliable information on healthy eating, Nourishing Traditions will not disappoint! Also check out the “companion” Weston A.

- e***e (82)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI was pleasantly surprised to receive the book I'd ordered in a box that was the proper size (instead of jammed into an envelope). Inside the box, the book was even wrapped in butcher paper. It was in excellent condition, as described. I appreciate the seller's thoughtful packaging and very quick shipping. Thank you!Reply from: frankie-oh-oh- Feedback replied by seller frankie-oh-oh.- Feedback replied by seller frankie-oh-oh.Thank you! I am a book lover, and I cannot abide by books arriving in PLASTIC with zero padding! So, all of my books are shipped in cardboard. We must respect our books :) Thank you for taking the time to note that, it's much appreciated!
