To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
DRAPING.
The amateur is reminded that there is no royal road to the art of draping. Success depends mostly upon a tasteful arrangement of a sufficient amount of goods, in a style adapted to the figure of the wearer.
In a work of this kind, in which no fashions are de- scribed, we can but give a few general rules and hints.
Magazines containing illustrations of new designs are easily procured, and should be carefully studied. Before attempting to cut a drapery, choose some particular style, and ...then do your utmost to follow it. Front breadths must be cut wide enough to pass the hips and extend under the back widths. The back must be con- fined to the back, and not in any case extend ox'er the hips.
Shawl-draperies are square breadths of goods, draped to form a distinct point, by drawing one side up to the top, and pleating both the edges into one waist band.
The corner is left loose on wrong side, forming a long loop on the right side. These draperies are not adapted to narrow goods, the seams running through them lengthwise being very unsightly.
