What a title! And no, this isn't fiction. See the publisher's blurb -- it's the stuff dreams are made of... I can't wait to review it. I'm waiting for this book to come in for me. In the meantime, I signed up for a sewing class to make my own classic shift. I purchased some lovely silk shantung in a warm ochre. I'll let you know how it goes. Right now I'm in the process of creating the muslin version and I'll have it fitted next week.
Publisher's blurb:
Every woman needs it! The Little Black Dress is the ultimate timeless, fail safe garment. But where is a girl to find an LBD that’s tailor-made, fits perfectly, and compliments her body? The answer: make one! Expert dressmaker Simon Henry guides even the sewing-impaired through the entire process. He explains all the materials and the techniques, and shows how to construct and fit a personalized body block that forms the basis for every pattern in the book. Choose from three classic styles: a chic shift, a fashionable wraparound, and an elegant strapless cocktail dress with a jacket and hat to match!
