It came recommended by a tutor, and in preparation for my course in making a tailored jacket. I high recommend the book as it has lots of detailed information and images along with useful tips on the construction of the garment and what to pay attention to, such as, testing fabric for purpose, adjustments to pattern, problem solving, handy tools and equipment to have and how to use them correctly. The tailoring techniques I find very good. Review: Full of clear, colour photos, and step by step suggestions. - Excellent value for money. This book is packed full of easy to understand, clear colour photo images of the essential stages in constructing a jacket. I needed it to check that my rusty skills from many years ago, were not forgotten and to update the ones that remained in my cluttered mind. Really good step by step instructions I.M.H.O. and whilst I also consulted another trusted vintage book on tailoring, I am well on my way to making a jacket to fit both my proportions and my high standards. ## Features - Warning:Do not use near overhead power lines. - New Store Stock ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 90,817 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 942 in Needlework & Fabrics 10,400 in Arts & Photography (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 557 Reviews | ## Images ![Tailoring: The Classic Guide to Sewing the Perfect Jacket: The Classic Guide to Sewing the Perfect Jacket - 400 How-to Photographs - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81qtGQKGpHL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great resource for Tailoring *by I***5 on 13 October 2024* The book arrived in good condition.

This book is packed full of easy to understand, clear colour photo images of the essential stages in constructing a jacket. I needed it to check that my rusty skills from many years ago, were not forgotten and to update the ones that remained in my cluttered mind. Really good step by step instructions I.M.H.O. and whilst I also consulted another trusted vintage book on tailoring, I am well on my way to making a jacket to fit both my proportions and my high standards. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A wonderful book for the advanced dressmaker. *by E***G on 8 November 2017* Tailoring is the ability to take a thin fabric that is properly cut, interfaced and interlined, so that clothes looks as rich and confident as a much heavier fabric. This is an excellent book for dressmakers who wish to move on from advanced sewing and pressing techniques into the different but professional world of tailoring. It doesn’t cover pattern-making which is a whole other skill that takes years to learn, but it does provide ways of adapting patterns and making clothes fit better so they look professional; it bridges the gap between home-made and handmade; something I battle with all the time. This is not a book for a beginner but for people who already understand how to create good clothes that are properly cut, stitched, pressed, eased, interlined and under-stitched. It even explains the proper use of pinking shears: which exist to thin-down seams, (not to prevent an edge from fraying as I was taught but could never understand). Learn to steam-ease a waistband without making darts, learn three different methods of interfacing, learn how to cover poppers so they are less visible, discover how to thin down and under-stitch bulky seams. Fantastic photos, clear information and explanations of three different methods of garment construction throughout; dressmaking method, tailoring methods and an in-between level - all in all this is a really useful book. ## Frequently Bought Together - TAILORING: The Classic Guide to Sewing the Perfect Jacket - 400 How-to Photographs - Making Trousers for Men & Women: A Multimedia Sewing Workshop - Shirtmaking Workbook: Pattern, Design, and Construction Resources - More than 100 Pattern Downloads for Collars, Cuffs & Plackets --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.it/products/49058215-tailoring-the-classic-guide-to-sewing-the-perfect-jacket-classic](https://www.desertcart.it/products/49058215-tailoring-the-classic-guide-to-sewing-the-perfect-jacket-classic) --- *Product available on Desertcart Italy* *Store origin: IT* *Last updated: 2026-05-09*
