Susan Khalje gives many interesting tips and tricks that would otherwise be very time-consuming to figure out, like how and where exactly to attach boning, what layers to use under skirts to make them look as you want to, how to work with lace and how to place it on the curved bodice while hiding the cut places, she gives suggestions as what fabrics to use for what garments - she is very fond of silk organza - for petticoats, underlining, bone channels. This is one of the rare books that show you professionally-done garments and reveal all their making secrets. Even if you're an advanced sewer, I still think you'll find many good tips here. Maybe a pure beginner would not be able to appreciate the value of the information given. Edit: To make it clear, this book is rather a collection of sewing tips that give your clothes a professional look than a step-by step sewing quide. If you already are a sewer and are longing to go pro and more into detail, this book is exactly what you need. It is supposed that you already know how to sew, draft and fit patterns and that you know how to put the garment together. Review: Used, but still good quality! - Received my order a day before its initial delivery date. The book is used however, still in good condition! No torn or super wrinkled pages everything is in tact. Very happy with my order. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,058,701 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #49 in Wedding Gowns #1,809 in Sewing (Books) #6,346 in How-to & Home Improvements | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 105 Reviews | ## Images ![Bridal Couture: Fine Sewing Techniques for Wedding Gowns and Evening Wear - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91A9OtS1D-L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Many useful tips & tricks, worth having *by Z***A on April 28, 2008* The Susan Khalje book is an excellent source of its sort - not speaking of the nice design and pictures, it tells you everything you would want to know when trying to make an evening or wedding dress.

The book is used however, still in good condition! No torn or super wrinkled pages everything is in tact. Very happy with my order. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ OK resource, doesn't go as in-depth as I would like *by J***E on November 1, 2018* As many others have stated, yes, the dresses featured in this book are very dated. But I didn't buy it to make one of those dresses, but more as a resource for the techniques needed for this type of sewing. There is a section with a lot of detailed information about common bridal fabrics including an in-depth portion about different types of lace, which is fantastic and a great help! Some of the sewing techniques, I feel, are not explained well or in-depth at all. This book pairs great with the book Couture Sewing Techniques by Claire Shaeffer (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1600853358) (who wrote the forward for this book) for more of the in-depth techniques to pair with the fabric and bridal-specific knowledge this book gives you. Considering the affordable price of the Shaeffer book, however, this one is not as good of a value due to the lack of depth. ## Frequently Bought Together - Bridal Couture: Fine Sewing Techniques for Wedding Gowns and Evening Wear - Couture Sewing Techniques: Revised and Updated - An Introduction to Wedding Dress Alterations: A Dressmaker's Guide to Working with & Sewing Bridal Wear --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/69386408-bridal-couture-fine-sewing-techniques-for-wedding-gowns-and-evening](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/69386408-bridal-couture-fine-sewing-techniques-for-wedding-gowns-and-evening) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-24*
