Dress Fitting is based on a set of fitting notes which were originally used in connection with a course of lessons given at the Katinka School of Dress Designing.

In Dress Fitting, Classic (Second) Edition problems of figure, posture and of pattern adjustment are clearly explained so that the dressmaker can, with the confidence that comes with practical experience, learn to identify a defect and choose the best method of dealing with it.
