Review: patterns of fashion 4 - The Janet Arnold books are a great resource for anyone into the history of costume and costume making. I bought this book for myself a while ago and have made many variations and adaptations of the ruff patterns. It has been my present of choice for friends who work as makers for the theatre, opera and film. The photographs of actual shirts and accessories worn at the time are very useful for getting a sense of the fabrics and materials used. A very inspiring book , I only wish it came in hardback form as mine is looking very dog-eared.
Review: wealth of information! - Outstanding book. The first half goes through existing garments, with photographs of the costume and any details, then the second half has the patterns for these garments on an imperial grid. The patterns are of the garment as seen, so to make to fit, adjustments will have to be made. There is also a section all about linen work and how to starch ruffs. So much information, this book will have everything you need to know about linen garments in the period mentioned.

I don't know how any historical sewer lives without these books! Purchased for help measuring up a 17th century shirt.
