Couture is an attitude--a non-complex way of thinking about sewing. Its about concepts--how to approach a technique, or a way of accomplishing a particular look. In this book, Carr expresses her philosophy--that there is no one way to do anything in couture sewing--and discusses alternative techniques. Illustrations and photos throughout. nIdeal for sewers with an interest in quality, style, and individuality, this book reveals techniques once only known to the seamstresses in the couture houses of Paris.
