Drawing foundation and modeling ability are one of the basic skills of fashion designers. Of course, there are some former design masters who can't draw, but he needs to be more outstanding in other aspects. However, if some people can't express their design ideas well through painting even after systematic study and training in school, it will bring great difficulties to their creation.
Only with a good painting foundation, can we accurately express the designer's creative ideas in the form of painting through the expressive ability of design modeling, and on the other hand, we can better appreciate the rhythmic beauty and rhythmic beauty of clothing modeling in the process of design and painting, thus giving designers inspiration.
At the beginning of the 20th century, Bauhaus once put forward that "the purpose of design is people, not products", especially clothing itself is the external covering of human body, which is closely related to human body. As a designer, only by having an accurate and comprehensive understanding of the proportional structure of the human body can we better express the beauty of the human body in three dimensions, which is the basis of design.
2. Rich imagination
Creativity and imagination are the wings of fashion designers. No matter how skilled a designer is, he can only be called a craftsman or tailor, not a real designer. The essence of design is creation, and design itself contains innovation and uniqueness. Flowers, birds and trees in nature, decorative objects around us/rich national and folk themes, music, dance, poetry, literature and even modern lifestyle can give us good inspiration and design inspiration. For thousands of years, in the long history of clothing, it is precisely because of the rich imagination and original spirit of our predecessors that we have left us rich and precious wealth.
In the history of western fashion design, those famous iconic fashion designers are ingenious in redesign with their unique creativity and imagination. Especially in 1930s, Shapiro Reilly, an influential Italian female designer, designed her shoes as a button on her head and her pocket as a drawer. Her rich imagination, humorous image and bold and unique design style are highly praised by future generations.
3. Mastery of styles, colors and fabrics
Style, color and fabric of clothing are the three basic elements of clothing design.
The style of clothing is the external contour modeling and component detail modeling of clothing, and it is the basis of design change. The external contour modeling consists of the length and latitude of the garment, including waist line, skirt length, shoulder width, hem looseness and other elements. The most common contour shapes are "A", "X", T, H, O and so on. The external contour modeling of clothing forms the lines of clothing, which directly determines the popularity of styles. The modeling of parts details refers to the design of collars, sleeves, pockets, cutting structures and even pleats, zippers and buttons.
The color change of clothing is the most striking part in the design. The color of clothing is the easiest to express the design feeling and is easily accepted by consumers. Hot red, hearty yellow, quiet blue, holy white, plain gray and hard black, each color of clothing has rich emotional representation, giving people.
