 Excellent resource Sep 30, 2008
This is a great book for men's patternmaking. I've had a lot of trouble finding a book to produce men's slopers but this covers that as well pattern constructions for vests, pants, and jackets.

The Practical Guide To Patternmaking For Fashion Designers: Menswear Aug 23, 2008
Detailed, yet understandable text describes design of men's fashion from making sloper to final pattern-making. Describes use of pattern-making tools.
Spiral binding has held up so far under hard use.

Pretty Comprehensive Study Aug 19, 2008
In the very first chapters a lot of useful information is presented, and a the reader is given a good insight on the fashion industry and the role of patternmaking. Then you're given a list of tools you'll need to begin your own patternmaking and from there on out you should be set with this book as your guide. I've also purchased the women's book and it looks like it will be just as helpful, but one thing at a time...

Menswear patternmaking made easy Aug 18, 2008
I have been trying to find a decent book that deals solely with menswear pattern design and I found it with this book. Many others I have from before were very difficult to use as the instructions were very minimal if any at all at times. This manual has excellent illustrations & instructions to make someone who may have never taken a course a good understanding in how to manipulate a men's pattern or create one with an easier understanding.

 USEFUL Apr 20, 2008
A serious text book type for aspiring designers. I bought this book simply to make clothes for myself as there is not much out there for men. 99.9% commercial patterns are for women and the 0.1% patterns for men are 80's redux with batwing sleeves and over sized shoulders. So far, I have used the book to make a block pattern for my own body. It's quite easy if you put your mind to it and reread the instructions. I must admit that this book is not suitable for amateurs. Having learned to sew from my mother since I was a preschooler must've helped me understand the term and techniques better as I did not go to fashion school. I am hoping to be the next Ennio Capasa (Costume National) someday, who knows?
