NEW FASHION DESIGNERS` SKETCHBOOKS

An invaluable resource for fashion students, teachers and designers, this book looks at research sketchbooks and the role they play in the research and design process. This book demonstrates how ideas are constructed, for single garments and entire collections, and looks at how pages and whole sketchbooks are put together. New Fashion Designers' Research Sketchbooks includes work and sketchbook pages from over 30 fashion designers, and examines a range of work from foundation students right through to up and coming professional designers. Coverage of each designer includes a short interview about what inspires them and how they express and develop this, the ways in which they use research sketchbooks and what value they place on them in the design process.
