by Suzanne Rowland (Author)
Edwardian fashions for women were characterized by the S-shaped silhouette, embellished with lace, tucks, ruffles, tassels, frills, and flounces. This essential book includes 11 detailed projects, which form a capsule collection of clothing and accessories that might have been worn by an Edwardian governess, a woman traveling on an ocean liner, a campaigning suffragette, or a wife overseeing a busy household in a large country house. It explains making sequences in full and advises in detail on how to give the garments a fine, authentic finish.
