TESTIMONIALS
This book gave me the opportunity to have jobs that I have never ever though about . Thank you

A book I wish I had when I was studying fashion years ago where I was taught very little on lingerie. Unless you can fly yourself to the UK and study Contour Fashion (I'm from Australia) or work in the industry you won't find a resource quite like this. It's very in depth and summarises everything you need to know about specs and grading. I've used this book to help me understand grading bras and underwear.

I own the “how to tech, spec and grade a bra and brief’ and it has been a great help to sharpen my skills and fix some little mistakes I was doing. Would recommend you book to anyone who came to me for advice on how to start.

The books I have from you have been more informative than any design class I’ve taken on fashion school. I’ve learned so much from you and will be forever grateful.
