Abstract
Measuring techniques and instruments responded to the modernist vision of a generation of tailors, dressmakers, patternmakers and cutters. Taking measurements was a central theme in theoretical reflection throughout the sector of fashion in 1920s and 1930s stimulated by research into a rational sartorial technique, by the need to simplify the passage from measurement to garment and to increase precision of cutting, thus reducing fitting times.File in questo prodotto:
