Title: dissapointing resource for costume creation
Review: I bought this text as a required reading for a theater class and can't tell you what a disappointment it was for me. I was looking for really specific help on costume creation and construction as applied to period themes and body types. I wanted to find ways to make costumes that were more adaptable and easy to wear and move in.This book is filled with lists and management strategies for the costumer. One section covers dealing with actors, directors and other stage and set staff. For the person running the costume corner of the theater, this book has forms and file lists for setting up the perfectly efficient shop. For the creative person looking to fashion an awesome costume design...this book does nothing but give her a list of other books that might contain the construction and creation and fitting info she is looking for.Too frustrating...!
