SIMPLY THE BEST
If you can add only one classic design/drafting book to your sewing library, I do not think that you could make a better choice than this extraordinary vintage volume! It is one of the most sought-after and difficult to find works from this period, and for good reason! A remarkable resource of patterns, techniques, details, design and inspiration, this book will open a remarkable window to the fashions, styles and sewing procedures of the 1940’s. I recommend it to you without reservation as probably the most comprehensive and rewarding book that you will find on the subject.

HUNDRED OF GLAMOROUS 1940’s FASHIONS
With easy-to-follow instructions and more than 1,000 illuminating drawings and diagrams, MODERN PATTERN DESIGN teaches you how the basic foundation pattern may be used to successfully create all types of garments through the use of the flat or block pattern system.
“This book teaches you the professional secrets of cutting smart, shapely wearing apparel as employed by the nation's leading designers. It teaches you how to reproduce those exclusive, glamorous gowns you’ve always wanted-by learning to cut your own design.”
“It allows you freedom from the limitations of commercial patterns, and teaches you how to add instead your own original ideas. Furthermore, it shows you how to adapt commercial patterns in order to achieve more beauty for your individual figure proportions.”

HARRIET PEPIN
DESIGNER-TEACHER-AUTHOR
Miss Pepin was educated for a teaching career, but during her school years, she spent much of her spare time in designing and making clothes for her classmates. She gave up the teaching profession however' and went to Washington where she did apprentice work in some of the Capital City smartest custom studios. Later, she continued her fashion studies at the Iraphagen School and at Parsons in New York.
Through the influence and encouragement of American garment manufacturers that she was urged to sponsor a specialized fashion training school in the Mid-West. In 1934, the Pepin Academy of Fashion was founded. It was a success from the first, and today many of its graduates attribute their prominent place in the fashion world to the early training received in the classrooms of the school.
Harriet Pepin's book, MODERN PATTERN DESIGN, is the result of years of exhaustive research. The methods which the book contains are up-to-the-minute, and have been thoroughly tried and proved. The volume is a timely contribution to the field of American design.”
