This traditional construction method makes one of the key aspects of the master tailor's art accessible to all. Aimed at apprentice students, sewing professionals and skilled amateur dressmakers alike, it details every stage of the construction process in over 300 photographs, enabling the complete production — whether bespoke or from a pattern — of a classic men's jacket.
The instructions for this expertise are complemented by a history of the men's tailored jacket, a fabric library, a glossary of specialist terminology and an assembly sequence summarising the various stages of production. Finally, the jacket pattern used as the guiding thread throughout the instructions is provided at full size, allowing readers to practise under optimal conditions while giving them the opportunity to create an exceptional piece for their wardrobe.
Sébastien was awarded the title of Meilleur Ouvrier de France in the Tailor category in 2022.
