Complete Fashion Sketchbook by Martin Dawber

An essential book for all fashion designers and fashion illustrators, whether they are learning or looking for new ways to make the most of their creativity. This book takes the reader through the most important uses of a sketchbook, beginning with approaches and sources for research and capturing colour, silhouette and texture, and including drawing and photography. You can find out how to evaluate and appraise your research and establish key elements and themes, with the creation of story boards and mood boards. Next is the design development, where you are guided through testing out ideas, problem solving and garment considerations and detailing. Finally, there is assembly and realization during which you refine the work, and work towards its presentation. There are great exercises to help unleash new ideas and case studies to see how others have worked through their sketchbook to a final collection. Hundreds of great images from working designers and illustrators as well as students, this is a great book for any fashion student or professional who want always to make the most of their creative work.
