Synopsis:  Award-winning pros share secrets of the trade in an informative, gorgeously illustrated book that's equally well suited for the coffee table and the reference shelf.

   This edition provides a behind-the-scenes look at Broadway, film, television, ballet, and opera in the form of interviews conducted with 18 leading contemporary costume designers who explain how they traverse the route from a preliminary sketch to a finished costume, with detailed information on renderings, fittings, swatching, and other techniques of the trade. The text is stunningly illustrated with some 400 previously unpublished color sketches by the designers. A reference also suitable for the coffee table.
