I love to design, this book has opened my creative process up again and inspired me to return to pattern making. This book is not for a begining pattern maker or seamstress. You can learn from it but it will overwhelm you. I am still in the process of reading and learninig what the book has to offer. For the price I believe it will meet my needs at least for a while and allow me the freedom to recreate some of the fashions I love in the expensive catalogs I can't afford to buy nor want to.As I work through the book and put it the test I will be in a better place to review how great the information is and how well one can use it. As in any craft, your ability to take a material and do something fabulous is often a matter of the work invovled, putting the time and energy into the process, and having access to the great materials.Scrapbooking and paper crafting has exploded with great products but the seamstress must dig hard to find the products that will bring awe and a great finished product. This has not changed as I have been in and out of many fabric shops recentley looking for fabrics. But the internet certainly has a lot to offer in fabrics provided you know what you want and are willing to buy sight unseen which comes with a whole other set of complications to deal with. Women like Martha Pullen keep the craft of sewing fresh and inspiring. I was excited to find this book and didn't think twice about investing the money. The book was everything I was seeking and so much more. jnetti. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Book *by B***N on Reviewed in the United States on May 23, 2023* Love this book and it came perfect even as used ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful, practical how-to *by C***Y on Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2012* While this book is quite expensive because it is a textbook, it is worth every penny to the advanced sewer who is beyond alterations to ready-made patterns but needs specific concrete instructions on how to drape their own designs. Despite the glamorous cover, the book is practical and straightforwardly organized. Fully-illustrated, it clearly walks you through draping every imaginable garment, one component at a time. You do have to be working off an actual body or a dressform, as this is draping to personalized fit, not pattern-making to industry specs. If you have not mastered garment construction the book will be over your head. It truly sticks to the topic of draping and design. There are many aspects of making original clothing which are not covered, from fabric selection to couturier construction techniques. This is not an advanced sewing manual. It is about draping and I can't imagine it being more clear or thorough on that topic. Invaluable for the new designer. If only it came with Tim Gunn to offer constructive critiques as you worked... --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/57418508-draping-for-apparel-design-2nd-edition-2nd-edition](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/57418508-draping-for-apparel-design-2nd-edition-2nd-edition) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
