Ready to Wear: Fashioned at Home

on BBC Two England

The series that reflects social changes over the last 50 years through the clothes people wear.

Home dressmaking was once a major part of female domestic life, but, as high-street clothing chains arrived, the skill was reduced to little more than a hobby. This examination of the rise and fall of sewing at home shows the extent to which it was once a national obsession.
