Jean Hunnisett's three-volume Period Costumes for the Stage & Screen is the ultimate resource for the accurate costuming of women. Spanning fashionable and common dress from medieval times to the early 1900s, these guides detail the patterns of the ages.
Reflecting knowledge gained from 25 years of making costumes for theater, film, and television, Hunnisett provides scaled patterns, step-by-step instructions, and working drawings. Mindful of purpose, the designs not only provide the right look for the times but are also fashioned using modern fabrics and sewing methods to fit the modern female figure.
In this most comprehensive of her three volumes, Jean Hunnisett describes and illustrates in detail the dress of the 19th century in seven parts, clearly demonstrating how individual pieces changed through the decades. In these chapters she provides a summary of the period and expands upon that with illustrations and descriptions of each part of the fashion of the day, which she completes with a look at dress created by accomplished costumers for contemporary television series.
With hundreds of illustrations and photographs, this guide provides all the essential information for creating authentic-looking costumes for the period.
This book is also available from Echo Point Books as a paperback (ISBN 164837428X).
