This book is for the one who is responsible for making costumes for the stage with limited resources, this is not a book or a historical costume sewing book. It contains summary but explanatory drawings. It gives a lot of tricks, some are related only to the context in English as supplies addresses or used clothing. But others are related to the overall preparation of costumes for groups, that are not found elsewhere. It lacks a chapter on the psychological effect of colors and their visual effect under the lights.
