    A standard

    Helen Joseph-Armstrong's book "Patternmaking for Fashion Design" has been in print for decades. It has gone through multiple revisions and new editions over the many years it has been in print, keeping up with changing fashions and improvements in textile engineering and technology. However, the basics remain the same, and older editions are no less useful than the most recent publication. This book is a standard among apparel designers and manufacturers at every level, from the home seamstress to the the most sophisticated apparel designers. It is indispensable to anyone who is serious about clothing design, and ubiquitous in the fashion design industry. If you have only one book on patternmaking and apparel design, and this should be it.

    The definitive guide

    If you sew your own clothes or want to, this is the best book I've seen yet. Gives proper terminology for all clothing styles and parts, and by the time you go through it, you will definitely want to sew.
