COSTUME DESIGN
Truth reads in small choices.

Plain note — Let history show in the seam.
Who·What·Why — Designer · pairs fabric to a reference swatch · lineage stays visible.

Reading the moment
A swatch pins to the textile. Pencil marks whisper along the edge. The seam allowance measures even from inch to inch.

Why it holds
Consistent, modest marks keep the story honest.

Put to work
Match one detail to your source exactly.

In your day
Choose one reference and follow it.

Practicum — $0 · 2–3 min · pin, pencil, tape
