Overview
In 1926, Coco Chanel designed the little black dress; it was hugely versatile for many different occasions and continued to be fashionable year after year with simple amendments and different
accessories keeping it up to date. Nearly 90 years later, the little black dress is still a wardrobe essential
and each season designers continue to adapt new versions of this
classic. This book supplies patterns for a number of different
styles of little black dress, with instructions on how to make different styles
of necklines, sleeves etc., showing the reader how to adapt and customise the basic
patterns.
