Creative Fashion Design with Illustrator®

The standard work on creative flat drawing in fashion is now completely updated, revised, and expanded! Creative Fashion Design with Illustrator® teaches students, designers, merchandisers, and developers how to master the industry's most established application and deliver stunning designs in the fastest possible way—exactly what's required on the job.
Starting with the basics, it explains how to create flat drawings of simple items such as vests, skirts, and shirts, then gradually moves on to both semi-flat and dynamic life garment drawing. Essential advanced skills, such as print manipulation, transparency and blending modes, pattern warping, lace, buttons, zips and embroidery, round out these superb and visually rich tutorials.
