📖 Fashion illustration techniques. Techniques du dessin de mode. Techniken der Modezeichnung

With more than 200 illustrations and brief explanations, this book offers a step-by-step introduction to the six most important methods of fashion illustration: watercolours, wax crayons, pastels, felt-tip pens, graphite and coloured pencils and collage. Readers will not only become familiar with these individual fashion-illustration techniques, but will also learn how to combine and experiment with them. The illustrations in this volume were inspired by the creations of such well-known fashion designers as Paul Poiret, Madeleine Vionnet, Coco Chanel, Cristobal Balenciaga and Frowick Halston. They show which methods are best suited for specific articles of clothing while providing a good overview of the history of fashion in the 20th century.
