into the swinging 1970s.During decades of daring, her quest was often challenged by the established norms of the day, when society measured success or
failure by the gender of an individual. By her twentieth year, Roisin had a dream and unquenchable desire to become a dress-designer, and not just designing
the normally acceptable designs of her era, but to create and introduce a completely new unique concept that would alter the way people saw themselves.-
Apart from the dramatic aspects of the story, students will find the descriptions of the ever-changing styles of the Australian and British rag-trade very interesting.
Readers should gain an enlightening insight of the clothing industry from the design stage through the manufacturing processes to the finished garment.
