Shirt Waister

Episode 3 of 10

This programme is much more than just a practical guide to making a shirt waister dress. There are as many fashion tips as sewing suggestions, an interview with a designer about how to achieve the couture look on a 'paper-pattern budget' and an unusual military-style catwalk show. (1967)
