Historical/Cultural/Societal/Technological Contexts in Fashion

These headings are convenient but they are not the end of the story.  The boundaries between these areas are fluid and changes in one area are often tied to changes in another.  For example a political event such as World War I had repercussions in almost every part of life: fewer resources (economic); women working in factories (social and economic); new weapons etc. developed (technological changes - which sometimes had an impact on fashion production); new attitudes (social) etc.

• Political events
• major events such as wars
• legislation which had an impact on social conditions (e.g. Women's suffrage)
• Economic conditions
• major events, e.g. The Depression
• the amount of disposable income available to spend on fashion items
• trade restrictions
• conditions of workers
• Technological changes and advances
• the development of fabrics
• improvements in apparel production techniques
• new inventions, e.g. the zipper
• Social conditions and changes
• attitudes to morality
• development of youth culture/'generation gap'
• growth of any subcultures.
• the status of women
• attitudes to the body (concealment vs exposure)
• Art/Design/Music developments
• any contemporary cultural trends that influenced fashion design, both main stream and counter culture.

Fashion Illustrations

In this assessment you are required to sketch your concepts and develop your ideas on the human form
A fashion illustration is created with the use of a Croquis. A Croquis is a french term used to describe a sketch of a model's silhouette. You can use the templates in class or explore a range of styles here and here.
Once you've chosen a croquis style that suits you you will show your designs using rendered sketches. A rendered sketch is a fashion illustration that suggests movement, shows colour and uses shading to highlight aesthetic and/or functional features of a garment. Pinterest is a great place to start exploring sketch styles and Fabric Forager has a inspiring collection of pins to explore.

Flats, or technical drawings, are essential for anyone working in the fashion industry. Used to convey design ideas and garment details to pattern cutters and machinists, it is essential that they are drawn accurately to avoid misunderstanding and costly mistakes in sampling and production.Working/Flat drawings are 2D sketches that show a front and back view of the garment.

Elements and Principles of Design

“The Principles of Design are the artistic guidelines used to organise or arrange the structural elements of design”

“Elements of Design are the components or part which can be isolated and defined in any visual design or work of art. They structure and carry the work.”

Design elements and principles are a way in which designers communicate their artistic individuality, influence trends, and create history.
