✎ Suggest a correctionThe first part of what appears to be a multi-segment home economics series, this film covers the principles of "line and proportion" in clothing selection — how vertical and horizontal lines in garments affect the perceived shape of the body, and how proportion guides the choice of collar, hem, sleeve, and silhouette. Aimed at teenage girls in a 1950s or early 1960s high school home economics class, it translates fashion design principles into practical guidance for everyday dressing.
