About the Book

To become a successful fashion designer, you will need to develop your drawing skills, but for any career in fashion it is important to have an understanding of the basic principles of good fashion drawing. Basics Fashion Design 05: Fashion Drawing presents a fresh perspective on the basic principles and practices of contemporary drawing styles, applied to a fashion context. The book takes a practical approach in discussing the process of fashion drawing, offering advice on the selection of materials and media and advising on their different uses and applications. It also considers the theory and history of fashion drawing, and the range of styles used by contemporary designers; from quick sketches to sophisticated digital pieces. This discussion is accompanied by interviews with designers and illustrators, a glossary, resources directory and templates.

Review :
An excellent resource for fashion students. Professional advice on portfolios and career progression. Great flat drawing/technical drawing examples and their uses in the fashion industry. The layout is very easy to understand and makes the book a quick reference for students. The Basics range are an excellent resource. Really easy to use. Great images/photographs/diagrams and illustrations are broad in range. Very relevant and very student friendly ... All of the Fashion and Textiles team often take AVA books to our classrooms to show students examples of good practice. Visually appealing ... The presentation formats are extremely useful. A VERY high quality publication. Thank you. The beauty of this book lies in its beautifully presented visuals. I teach Fashion Illustration and have used the book to demonstrate the differing styles of fashion illustration which opens up possibilities to students. They find the images inspire them. A fantastic introduction to fashion drawing – simple and easy to follow layout with excellent descriptions. An excellent resource ... Very thorough, clear and concise in layout and content. It is great to see a book that encompasses all elements and supports the learners through these processes. I look forward to getting my students to utilize this publication in support of their own work. A very useful starter book for a student embarking on a Degree Course in Fashion design or Illustration. An excellent supplement to studio teaching, which gives the student well considered and selective information and advice. Full of useful illustrations, with a variety of techniques and processes that can enhance a student's portfolio skills. Fashion Drawing is an accessible, visually orientated introduction to fashion drawing and illustration for students. The book's content is enriched by numerous color and black-and-white examples of different drawing styles by contemporary fashion designers and illustrators, photographs of fashion models, and many interviews with experts in the field including fashion designers and illustrators, design directors, and even a fashion career advisor.
