It contains 16 fully rendered patterns spanning from Tudor to mid-20th century fashion, digitally created pattern grids with numbered guides for maximum clarity, step-by-step construction techniques specific to each historical period, specialised sewing methods for authentic costume creation, and detailed colour photography demonstrating essential processes.
