Riassunto

Fashion denotes artistic dressing, and it is a product of the sewing trade considered important to the public. However, if the general perception of the sewing trade had been viewed with a little more respect, the trade wouldn't be on its deathbed today. The public must understand that manufacturers alone can't meet their thirst for elegance; there must be technicians outside the manufacturing arena to service the clothes before they wear them. No matter what, if you have acquired some social and fashion values, at some point during the life of a garment, you must consult with a garment technician. But people are unwilling to respond to the importance of the trade and compensate those who help them look their best in life. Western dressers will feel the disappearance of bespoke (custom) tailors and dressmakers, who were known for their exceptional talents, and especially now with the increased demand for fashionable clothes. The public must read and learn about fashion and clothes not just look at photos of glamorous people; or read articles usually written by good writers but without substance, but read articles to acquire knowledge about clothes and properly wearing those that depict fashion and artistic dressing. This book provides the knowledge and was written for that purpose. This perception stigmatized the sewing trade as the "trade of the dropouts," and thus caused the younger generation to turn away from learning the trade. With the same breath, they can restore the artistic talent through a concerted effort of the authorities, the fashion schools and the manufacturers, before the art disappears completely. Since both men and women have acquired a desire and taste for fashion dressing, it is a sign that indicates a willingness to respect the trade and to place it in its proper perspective in order to protect the quality of fashion. What would we do without clothes? It's a fact that no one ever leaves home unless he or she is dressed with good taste.
