Cheongsam Tailor Method (The Reprinted Version)

Some technologies are changing with each passing day, while others are constant across years. "e;Cheongsam Tailor Method"e;, first published in May 1966, has been in circulation for exactly 50 years. In the 50 years, great changes have taken place in fashion and trend, and cheongsam, the best apparel to show the beauty of eastern women, has always had an irreplaceable status. Today we re-publish the book to conserve our traditional culture, and reproduce the process of the craft so that the hand-made technique heritage can be passed down from generation to generation. Although many years have passed, the contents of this book still have considerable practical value, especially in the cheongsam's style, cutting and sewing techniques, which are profound to be grasped. The republished version aims to commemorate the old Hong Kong, and also teach the making tricks with pictures, and general skills about the cutting knowledge, size measurement and drawing paperwork in easy but effective language, so that one could make hand-sewn cheongsam by her own in a relatively easy way. Even for the readers who already have out-of-print books, the book is still valuable to be placed on their collecting shelves.
