The title takes a practical approach in describing the process of fashion drawing, offering advice on the selection of materials and media, through to their different uses and applications. It also considers the theory and history of fashion drawing, and the range of styles used by contemporary designers; from quick sketches to sophisticated digital pieces. This discussion is accompanied by interviews with designers and illustrators, a glossary, resources directory and templates.

It also discusses knitwear as an industry and offers useful career information, with further insight provided by interviews with international designers.

6. Neil Leonard – Basics Graphic Design. Design Research
A graphic design project can be viewed as a series
of choices – the more informed these choices are,
the stronger the outcome will be. Research is the tool
that, above all others, can help you gain the in-depth
knowledge needed to inform your choices and make
the most appropriate and educated decisions.
Research is an ongoing process, beginning with initial
fact-fi nding as you respond to a brief, and progressing
through audience research, to the development and
synthesis of ideas, and the fi nal testing of materials,
processes and resolutions.
The processes you undertake may be structured or intuitive,
but all research should be approached with an open mind.
You may start with a very clear methodology that allows you
to move from one step to another in a structured way, or you
may prefer to engage in a series of experiments and allow
the outcome of these to dictate your next step. In either
case, you should be open to what your research tells you.
This book will act as a guide, introducing you to relevant
concepts and terminology, and helping you make the most
of your investigative work. The chapters help you discover
appropriate research methods, identify and question your
target market and make appropriate and targeted design
choices. The book will help you make the best of your
creative ideas, formulate plans and structure your work in
a way that will benefi t your fi nal ideas and open fresh
avenues of creativity.
