The Dressmaker by Elizabeth Birkelund Oberbeck
The Dressmaker is a love story set in the fashion world of France and New York. Claude Reynaud is a tailor in the town of Senlis, forty minutes outside of Paris. Claude does everyday mending and sewing jobs for the townspeople of Senlis, but his skill has attracted Parisiennes. The Parisiennes come to be fitted by Claude, especially for wedding dresses. A new client, Valentine de Verlay, gives Claude complete control over the design of her wedding gown. Despite her engagement, Claude is attracted to Valentine and she to him. The quiet, calm, orderly life Claude is used to is thrown into disarray by Valentine.
