Summary: This book seeks to augment and further the public's understanding of Filipino attire. This study focuses on a different aspect of clothing, namely, the cut of the traje de mestiza, and the terno. The study confines itself to a study of extant gown worn by the upper class of society from 1890s-1960s. While recent gowns are easily accessible, those of an earlier make are becoming more difficult to find. Costume makers, designer and art researchers, will find this book a practical guide in their work. There are illustrations they can study to observe changes in dress silhouettes, and trim and décor detail which vary from period to period. Choice of fabric can be noted and influences from designers in Europe and America can also be discerned.
