Produktbeschreibung

A highly detailed book that focuses on technical drawings or flats: the drawings that fashion designers make to provide a detailed and accurate representation of the garment In this highly detailed second volume about technical drawing in fashion design, authors Elisabetta "Kuky" Drudi and Tiziana Paci demonstrate how to translate 3D images to 2D. Aimed at fashion students and designers, it covers every aspect of garment representation for all kinds of clothing, from skirts to beachwear to accessories, including shape, proportions, cuts, tailoring details, and fabric types. Technical drawings, or flats, are an irreplaceable means of communication to translate in a visually clear and legible way, the sketch of an outfit where stylistic details, actual volumes, lengths, and other elements of the garment are not displayed in depth. In straightforward, descriptive language, this book teaches readers the most effective ways to draw a detailed and accurate representation of the garment that pattern cutters and machinists can read and implement. The first module focuses on the basic tools and materials needed to make a technical drawing by hand or digitally, with examples of how to translate hand-drawn, photographed or digitally created designs into flats. Next, readers learn about topics such as how to fill out a garment specification or production sheet, as well as different methods for designing a piece of clothing on mannequins of different types and in different positions, usable as tracing patterns, and avoiding having to draw the body or basic mannequin each time. In the third module the main types of women's clothing are covered, including short overviews of their history. Finally, the last two modules are dedicated to bags and footwear (accessories). All the images in the latter modules are drawn and colored by hand, and many include step-by-step drawings that can be reproduced with relative ease. A perfect mix between creativity and technical rigor, this book is a decisive tool for anyone interested in training in the field of professional fashion design and learning the technical terminology.
