The Great British Sewing Bee: The Modern Wardrobe - Juliet Uzor - The Great British Sewing Bee

From The Great British Sewing Bee series, The Modern Wardrobe by Juliet Uzor is a hardback sewing book designed to help you build a wearable collection of garments through approachable projects and pattern-alteration techniques. With womenswear sizes ranging from 8 to 22 and five downloadable pattern sheets, it guides you through making clothes that are intended to be easy to sew, wear and combine.

Across 27 projects, you’ll learn how simple alterations can transform a single pattern into three different looks, helping you develop confidence as your skills grow. Projects include paper bag shorts, a dance dress, Oxford Bag trousers, a Breton two-piece and an A-line dress, alongside further designs. Clear instructions, illustrations and photography support the pattern process, while expert tips focus on personalising fit and bringing more of your own style into the pieces you make.
