This practical book explains how to achieve great designs and
creative cuts by seeing ideas come to life three dimensionally. By
manipulating and pinning fabric on the dress form or house model,
fashion designers can visualise their ideas and become more
confident with their own creative visions. This new book includes
advice on how to measure the body, as well as prepare the mannequin
and fabric; it explains the draping process in detail with
step-by-step instructions and practical tips throughout. It gives
advice on working at half scale and provides calico preparation
diagrams. Finally, there are chapters which introduce new design
elements and/or garment type, and covers dresses, skirts, shirts
and blouses. Written by a leading designer, Draping for Fashion
Design is an essential guide to this skill (also known as
'moulage'), and explains how the fashion designer can understand
their designs more fully, as well as the fabric and the garment's
fit, in order to achieve impressive and sometimes unexpected
results.
