With the loss of Joannes and other in person fabric stores, I realized I didn't know the right terminology to buy fabric online. I got this, and it was so informative. It also has so many swatches so I can feel the fabric, and that is so helpful with making online fabric purchases.

Ce livre est impeccable avec les échantillons de tissus montrant les différences entre eux. Cela permet de bien connaître la qualité que l'on souhaite et de différencier la matière. Je ne regrette pas mon achat malgré que ce dernier soit en anglais à défaut d'avoir eu une version en français. Bref, c'est un bel investissement qui est incontournable pour l'usage et les ouvrages que je vais réaliser.

Ho acquistato Fabric for Fashion The Swatch Book di Clive Hallett e Amanda Johnston e devo dire che è un investimento assolutamente fondamentale per studenti di moda, designer, sarti, o chiunque sia seriamente interessato al mondo dei tessuti. Questo libro non è solo un manuale teorico; è una risorsa pratica e tattile unica. La revisione include 142 campioni di tessuti e filati tra i più diffusi, che sono fissati in modo intelligente e robusto per poterli toccare, maneggiare e studiare da vicino. Questa possibilità di interagire fisicamente con i materiali fa la differenza rispetto a qualsiasi altro libro illustrato. Ogni campione è accompagnato da informazioni dettagliate su composizione, costruzione, peso e proprietà, il che rende incredibilmente semplice prendere decisioni informate sui materiali per i propri progetti. Copre una vasta gamma, dalle fibre naturali (cotone, seta, lana, lino) a quelle artificiali e alternative (bamboo, canapa). È uno strumento di consultazione ineguagliabile che consiglio vivamente. Se avete bisogno di capire la mano di un tessuto, il suo drappeggio o semplicemente di imparare a riconoscere e scegliere la stoffa giusta per l'uso specifico, questo "Swatch Book" è una gemma da avere. Un must-have nella libreria di ogni professionista del settore tessile e moda.
