Reducing or enlarging a sewing pattern - Grading Men's garments fashion book.

This book, the second stage in our ""Become a pattern drafter”: Men’s garments series, completes the creation of garments developed earlier using a point-by-point explanation of how to move from one size to the other: shirts, vests, jackets, coats, blousons, parkas, jeans and tailored trousers.

Conceived to respond to the needs of today’s clothing industry, it also addresses individuals passionate about sewing thanks to the choice of models used that can serve as examples for creating a multitude of other designs. Manual and computer methods are explained in partnership with the Lectra company.
