Description
Excerpt from Modern Millinery: A Workroom Text Book Containing Complete Instruction in the Work of Preparing, Making and Copying Millinery, as Actually Practiced in the Most Advanced Trade Workrooms
In common with other workers in the arts, the milliner can only express her enthusiasm for line, color and harmony after she has acquired by study and practice a thorough knowledge of the mechan ics of frame-making and of measuring, cutting and applying materials. Thus millinery work may be divided roughly into two classes - Con struction and Or'namentation.
It has been felt by the author of this book that the presentation of both classes of millinery work in one volume would introduce the beginner pre maturely to the work of trimming and encourage the all-too-prevalent tendency to slipshod produc tion.
