An inspiring guide to creating a flexible, seven-piece wardrobe with modern Scandinavian elegance, from style icon Lotta Jansdotter

When Jansdotter wears one of her signature clothing looks, fans frequently ask, âDid you make that?â Lottaâs answer is, âYes, and so can you!â With that in mind, she has created her second book of easy-to-sew pieces that can be layered to create a variety of looks. Lotta Jansdotter Everyday Patterns is all about flexible, customizable garments to wear in your nest and in your neighborhood, and easy, fun ways to alter each one as the seasonâor your moodâchanges. The book includes sewing instruction and patterns for basic garments (skirt, shirt, shirt dress, tunic, pants, jacket, and robe) and unique accessories (tote bag, bandana, and more). For each garment, Jansdotter offers ideas for trims, pockets, sleeves, and hemlines to encourage readers to personalize and add details. And once more, she includes the sources of her inspiration and how she and her friends and family wear key pieces in different variations while working, playing, resting, and traveling.

      U.S.-based Swedish designer and style icon Jansdotter (Lotta Jansdotter Everyday Style) shares her classic and simple style tips with readers. She suggests readers create a capsule wardrobe with patterns that use a variety of fabrics and colors to create versatile pieces. Each garment is modeled by either the author or someone from her social circle. Readers who are just getting started with sewing, or have been creating pieces for a long time, will find useful patterns and tips in this book. Especially intriguing are suggestions for trying different sleeve lengths as well as dress and skirt hemlines, a tote bag with a removable strap, headbands, and even a button-down shirt that can be made multiple ways, with or without pockets. The patterns and accompanying sewing instructions are easy to follow. VERDICT A great choice for anyone hoping to create a capsule wardrobe for themselves or others.--Elizabeth Majka
