Excerpt from The American Coat, Vest and Trousers System Great progress has been made in the science of garment cutting during the present century. System has followed system, nearly all of more or less merit. From the simplicity of early so-called systems, to the complexity of those of the present day, there is a marked growth. In all advances, however, simplicity, or natural ness of method, should never be abandoned It is self-evident that a straight line is the shortest distance between two points, and that the most simple method by which the dis tance from any given point to another may be obtained, is by measuring in the short est and most direct manner, when possible, from one point to the other. This simple principle seems to have been lost sight of by at least very many, and indirect, out of-the way and unscientific methods have been substituted, so that with complexity has come confusion and uncertainty. It is the purpose of the author of this work to present a system of garment cut ting which is simple, because it is based upon scientific principles. They are therefore natural and easy of comprehension. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
