<p>The rapid output of new flat pattern designs, facilitated by slopers, is a useful skill for any fashion designer. This classic reference provides a detailed introduction to the use of the flat pattern as a means of developing original ideas effectively and efficiently. It presents thoroughly the use of the three basic slopers - waist, sleeve and skirt - and some popular variations of these such as the kimono waist, raglan sleeves and pants. A companion text to How to Draft Basic Patterns; (4th Edition), the book provides a number of applications for each sloper variation to supply variety and sufficient practice.</p>

The terms are organized into 51 categories that cover such areas as active wear, blouses and tops, clothing construction details and footwear. In addition, the inclusion of pronunciation guides for foreign words, alphabetical page tabs and the cross-referencing of the categories to the alphabetical listing make this reference text easy to use. New illustrations and labelled "anatomical" drawings capture the details of fashion and show how the parts of fashion items fit together.
