A powerful chronicle of the women who used their sewing skills to survive the Holocaust, stitching beautiful clothes at an extraordinary fashion workshop created within one of the most notorious WWII death camps.\u00a0<\/p>\n

At the height of the Holocaust twenty-five young inmates of the infamous Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp\u2014mainly Jewish women and girls\u2014were selected to design, cut, and sew beautiful fashions for elite Nazi women in a dedicated salon. It was work that they hoped would spare them from the gas chambers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This fashion workshop\u2014called the Upper Tailoring Studio\u2014was established by Hedwig H\u00f6ss, the camp commandant\u2019s wife, and patronized by the wives of SS guards and officers. Here, the dressmakers produced high-quality garments for SS social functions in Auschwitz, and for ladies from Nazi Berlin\u2019s upper crust.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Drawing on diverse sources\u2014including interviews with the last surviving seamstress\u2014The Dressmakers of Auschwitz follows the fates of these brave women. Their bonds of family and friendship not only helped them endure persecution, but also to play their part in camp resistance. Weaving the dressmakers\u2019 remarkable experiences within the context of Nazi policies for plunder and exploitation, historian Lucy Adlington exposes the greed, cruelty, and hypocrisy of the Third Reich and offers a fresh look at a little-known chapter of World War II and the Holocaust.<\/p>\n
