Whether looking for an everyday outfit, or a really special ensemble to display their favourite doll in, the enthusiast will find plenty of choice here. The designs are made for dolls sized from 14 inches to 24 inches, both adult and child styles, in all of the most popular period fashions. There's expert guidance on altering patterns to fit different-sized dolls as well as clear and easy-to-follow advice on the basic dressmaking techniques that are needed. From the Victorian era comes a walking out costume, a smart travelling coat complete with astrakhan trim, and an enchanting nightdress with mop cap. There's classic Edwardian Norfolk tweed suit and a stylish leg'o mutton sleeved jacket with matching skirt. Twentieth-century styles feature fashions from the 1920s and 30s, as well as a glamorous 1950s 'Prom' dress. Every outfit has its own hat and footwear - even its own underwear! All the designs can be easily adapted, as the author's sketched variations on each of the made-up outfits clearly show.
