Description

Authentic historical costume is essential for any performance, to instantly communicate a period, a social standing, an occupation, or an identity. The responsibility of this representation lies with the costume maker's knowledge of the design and accuracy of construction. The Costume Maker's Companion serves as a guide to novice and experienced makers alike, covering the common garments of the Medieval, Tudor, Jacobean, Restoration, Regency, and Victorian eras of British history. Logically divided by historical period and supported by more than 400 photographs, sketches, and diagrams, this book will develop the confidence of any costume maker to take on new projects and expand their knowledge.
