This fourth edition of Metric Pattern Cutting for Children's Wear and Babywear remains the standard text book but has three major improvements. First, the sections have been re-organised to reflect changes in producing and marketing children's clothes. Today's popularity of easy-fitting styles and knitted fabrics means that basic 'flat' pattern cutting is used to construct the majority of children's wear and babywear and this type of cutting is therefore emphasised in this new edition. Shaped blocks and garments, cut to fit the body form, are still included, and are placed in chapters covering some school uniform garments or more expensive fashion or formal clothes. The book now clearly separates the sections useful to student beginners (Parts One, Two and Three), and also offers more advanced or specialist sections for students who wish to pursue a career in children's wear or for designers working in the different manufacturing sectors of the trade. The second change in this fourth edition is the introduction of colour coding to the sections; this makes it easier to identify specific processes in the book and enhances the illustrations. Finally, the size charts have been revised to reflect the changes in body sizing. The clear division of the boys' and girls' measurements in the charts has been in response to the way clothes are marketed and to co-ordinate with European size charts. 'Plus' charts for heavier children have also been added.

This step-by-step introduction to grading combines the theory of pattern grading with its practical applications. After presenting the x, y orientation to familiarize readers with the concepts of computer grading and using the Cartesian graph, the text takes a holistic approach, integrating anthropometry, size specifications, and grade guides into the grading process for women's garments with emphasis on maintaining fit and style sense. Concepts are also applicable to grading men's and children's patterns. The 3rd Edition is user friendly, with completed grading charts and practice exercises in every chapter. The text has been updated with current sizing and industry classification standards. New to this Edition: - Expanded discussion of computer grading technology including Optitex, Gerber, Lectra, and Tukatech software - 20% new end of chapter exercise questions - More coverage of grading pants with new illustrations - New grading design variations for the skirt back grade, two dart bodice front, bodice with midriff, bodice with yokes, asymmetrical styles, skirts with pockets,and the two-piece sleeve - Added discussion of stack points, full grade and half grade - New Test Bank with terminology testing, t/f, multiple choice, and an answer key

This book sets out for students and professionals the practical principles and applications of pattern grading for men's clothing. The first chapters examine some examples of international sizing systems, develop the methods of calculating and validating the grading increments from a given size chart and demonstrate the working methods for manual grading. The main part of the book presents, in a simple stage by stage format, the applications of the system to a comprehensive range of men's garments. This is followed by a section containing examples of grades for styled garments, and each demonstration is preceded by a short discussion of the practical considerations involved. Finally the state of the art of computerised grading is explained and the latest developments in fully automatic grading are discussed, with some examples. A unique feature of this book is that some of the grading demonstrations include the grades for linings, fusibles and pockets, etc. How garment manufacturing technology influences specific aspects of pattern grading is also discussed.
