The author presents here her original garment patterns and detailed sewing instruction so plus-size women can create a closetful of flattering shapes and silhouettes. By working with the 4 basic patterns for pants, a blouse, skirt, and jacket, step-by-step construction, and fitting instruction, readers can create a wardrobe of versatile and stylish garments – which can be adapted for office wear, casual wear, or evening wear, just by varying the colors, fabrics, and finishing details. Each garment is shown in petite to full sizes, from size 14 to 24. The author also includes her perfect fit guide for each garment style, based on grading rules. She also provides a gallery of 51 outfits for a wardrobe made with the four patterns.
