Reference books to improve my skills!

[jamethiel]

Hi all,

I'm currently taking sewing lessons and making a coat (tailored, with horsehair interfacing and pad-stitching and all!). However, I'd like to read up a bit more on the subject. My teacher says all her learning is in her head, and I'd like to read about it.

So I'd like reference books! Specifically books on

• Tailoring
• Fit and how to see what's wrong with a garment and how to fix it
• couture finishing techniques

What are your recommendations?
