Fashion Thinking (eBook, PDF)

Creative Approaches to the Design Process

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Fashion's great innovations often spring from inspired designers developing unique concepts and challenging the status quo. But how do they do it? To find out, follow ten exceptional fashion design students as they respond to a brief, exploring their diverse strategies and the thinking behind their final collections.

This second edition of Fashion Thinking features six new interviews, with insight from the director of Open Style Lab, Grace Jun, and Yeohlee Teng, whose designs have earned a permanent place in the Costume Collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. There are also four new case studies, incorporating new technology including adaptive design for the visually impaired and the use of augmented reality.

Beautifully illustrated and structured to clearly demonstrate how to take ideas from concept to design, Fashion Thinking demystifies the creative thinking process to help you develop your own unique collection.

Fashion Thinking also has its own companion website to this book - with curated videos and websites relating to each designer. Visit: https://www.bloomsburyonlineresources.com/fashion-thinking-creative-approaches-to-the-design-process-2/home
