Review
“It will help students and professors of fashion design understand how apparel quality is addressed throughout the process from design concept through production and how students think and build quality into their projects at every stage of development relative to price point. ” ―Evelyn Pappas, Savannah College of Art and Design, US
“Information [is] more current than competing textbooks, engaging format and style, appropriate for undergraduate fashion students, strong focus on quality cues, evaluation and terminology appropriate for industry professionals, inclusion of the consumer perspective, and glossary of terms. ” ―Rebecca Greer, Stephen F. Austin State University, US
“The international perspective is the best aspect of the [book]. The fact that both U.S. and international standards will be addressed will be of tremendous benefit to students. . . The major need fulfilled is that the text [is] updated and brings information more in line [with] what is currently happening in the industry. ” ―Bruce A. Cameron, University of Wyoming, US
“The… accompanying lab manual is excellent. Students in this area tend to be experiential and visual learners. The more hands-on experiences that they can obtain, the better reinforced the knowledge becomes. ” ―Jan Haynes, Delta State University, US
