That&#8217;s the mindset of Rosie Martin, author of DIY Couture; a book whose credo it is to democratise fashion, and which offers a step-by-step guide to personally tailored clothes without the need of patterns. Frustrated by the stuff available on high-street, Rosie Martin started making her own clothes with only beginners\u2019 sewing skills. Collecting accolades from everyone, the private passion soon turned public as she decided to put together \u2018how to\u2019 guide booklets for different garments. Now, these various booklets and much more are collected in the first ever DIY Couture book, by Laurence King Publishing.<\/p>\n<p>DIY Couture features ten collections ranging from flashy Rude Disco to romantic Tea Picnic. Each collection features a straight skirt, Grecian dress, skater skirt, waistcoat, cloak, slouch top, goddess dress, a hoody, trousers and romper, which vary according to collection\u2019s theme. The step-by-step instructions are visual, simple and will give you the confidence to make clothes no one else is wearing.
