Description

Art students who plan to work in fashion design will value this ordinary book and CD-ROM combination. The book opens with detailed instruction in drawing a appropriately proportioned human figure, which is the essential foundation for all fashion illustration. The most detailed and accurate garment drawings cannot convey a garment’s true appearance with out a properly drawn figure wearing it. Chapters that follow present detailed illustrations of human figures in a variety of fashion poses, followed up with quite a lot of garment shapes superimposed at the figures. Garments include dresses, gowns, pants, skirts, outerwear, knits, and plenty of other items. This book also shows students the best way to employ the rendering techniques that add to creation of a professionally finished fashion illustration. Techniques include shading, highlighting, and coloring illustrated figures, the use of watercolors, markers, or working digitally. The enclosed CD-ROM presents templates that students can either print or bring up on their computer screens, and then embellish with their own garment designs. The book’s more than 250 illustrations in color and black and white complement an instructive text.
