individual of today. Even the retro fashion is never seen.

WHY DOES FASHION CHANGE?

• Fashion change because people change.

• We always want something new.

TWO FASHION CHANNELS

GARMENT

CONSTRUCTION

GARMENT CONSTRUCTION

A sloper pattern (home sewing) or block

pattern (industrial production) is a custom-fitted, basic

pattern from which patterns for many different styles can

be developed. The process of changing the size of a

finished pattern is called grading.

Fashion design runs the garment from eveningwear to

sportswear, women’s wear to menswear, and kids wear to

knitwear. Garment Construction popularly called as Pattern

Engineering has a great importance in the fashion design

industry. The companies like Van Heuson, Dockers, Levis,

Adidas etc. are all providers of perfect fit and this is what

we learn at Dezyne E’cole through the art of pattern

making.

The draping method involves creating a muslin mock-up

pattern by pinning fabric directly on a form, then

transferring the muslin outline and markings onto a paper

pattern or using the muslin as the pattern itself.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clothing_sizes

• The first clothes were made of natural

elements-:

Animal skins

Furs

Grasses and leaves

• Clothing was draped and tied, needles were

made of bones.

• Before sewing machines all clothing were

simple and hand sewn, after sewing

machines were invented, the clothing was

industry took off.


• Garment making is a technical accomplishment

that requires knowledge of fabrics, principles of

clothing construction and skills involved in it.

• This depends on the ability to select the correct

fabric, color, design and accessories to suit an

individual occasion.

NATURE AND PURPOSE OF DRESS

• Most obvious function of dress is warmth and protection.

• Identifying the wearer and making wearer appear more

attractive.

HISTORY

TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT’S

The flat-pattern method is where the entire pattern is drafted on a flat surface from measurements, using rulers,

curves and straight-edges. A pattern maker uses various tools such as a notcher, drill and awl to mark the pattern.

Usually, flat patterning begins with the creation of a sloper or block pattern, a simple, fitted garment made to thewearer's measurements.

A patternmaker typically employs one of two methods to create a pattern.

TYPES OF SEAMS

BOUND SEAM ABBUTED SEAM FLAT FELLED SEAM

TOP SEAM FRENCH SEAM


• A costume or garment is constructed by cutting the

fabric into parts according to a pattern which fits the

human form; then the different parts

are joined together by sewing.

FINISHES

• Finishing is a final process given to garments-

• Gives a good appearance

• Desirable feel

• Impart certain durable properties

1. Stiffness

2. Softness

NECKLINE FINISH- PIPING

PIPING – Piping is a bias strip of fabric on 1 ¼” wide and is attached to the neckline on the seam line after starching.

The piping is finished either by heming or machine stich it is finished to about 1/8” to ¼” wide ready on the right side of

the garment it is a popular finish for necklines.

Here are several steps of preparation to finish a neckline threw piping -

1. Take measurement of

neckline.

2. Mark a bias strip which is

1.5“ wide and length

according to neck + seam

allowance.cf 3. Cut the strip.

4. Pin this strip at neck.

NECKLINE FINISH- FACING

SHAPED FACING- A shaped facing is cut following the shape of the neckline and its attached on the right side and

then it is completely turned in. the width of this facing varies for each design but is generally 1-1/2”

3. Cut the strip.

4. Pin this strip at neck.

1. Trace the neckline on fabric 2. Mark a bias strip which is

1.5“ wide and length

according to neck + seam

allowance.

GEOMETRY

As since from childhood we are using geometry. We worked through our geometry boxes. As we grew up we came to

see that geometry is everywhere. Geometry is seen in plants, mountains, human figure, architects and many more. The

things which we take in daily use like pen, pencil, rubber, boxes, scales, etc. are also based on geometry.

• Geometry is the combination of shapes, lines, and forms.

• Things that are available in market are in rectangular shapes- copy, boxes, rubbers, sharpeners, pencil, etc.

• In geometry we can find how circles can be used in myriad ways to create geometrical shapes and patterns.

• From Ancient times geometry could be seen in the dresses. Pyramids were constructs through geometry.

• Geometry is all about GOLDEN RATIO.

• Everything on earth is based on FIBONACCI SERIES i.e. human figures.

• Things based on Fibonacci series looks beautiful and elegant.

When I entered in the field of FASHION DESIGNING I came to know that all the cuts on the dresses are based on

geometry. Garment construction totally depends upon geometry. The patterns are developed through geometry.

So, presently I am working on a project which is based on geometry, as geometry fascinated me a lot.

In the subsequent pages you will be able to see how geometry has been used to create different patterns.

COLLECTION

MARKET RESEARCH

• In order to gain an understanding of current fashion

stock and ranges across market level, the designers

need to conduct “COMP SHOP” this term refers to

competitor, retail outlets, stock and comparing this

stock with each other.

• Quality of fabric construction and detailing are carefully

studied along with prices and origin of manufacturers.

• It provides a great deal of information like planning and

selling fashion collection.

• Finally, it will be the fashion buyers who make the

decision to order fashion.

• Decisions based on-

1. Historical knowledge of customer

2. Quality of merchandise

3. Exclusivity, price and stock in previous season

HOW TO START COLLECTION

• Any successful or financially viable collection

require an enormous amount of research.

• Designers, manufacturers have information of their

customers need.

• In addition to creation of any collection we need to

consider a lot of consideration.

THEMES FOR COLLECTION

• Designer selects theme, color, type of fabric, place,

history, event.

DESIGNING FOR COLLECTION

• Designing builds of theme and includes number of

garments, to be done. From paper pattern to muslin

sample, adjustments, accurate pattern, samples in

fashion fabric and various colors in three month

period.

COLLECTION AND THEIR INFLUENCES

• ARCHIVISM

In a fashion context, archivism refers to the way in which designers look back to previous collections for inspirations. In

particular the original aesthetics of all well established label may be revisited decades later, with collection referencing

the same design influences and detailing. Designers such as Karl Lager field for Chanel and John Galliano for Christian

Dior continue to refer the fashion houses iconic statements, playing with scale, logo and accessories,. These designers

continue to update the signature of past. These fashion sources fluctuate in importance and influence due to trend

directions and fashion ever changing aesthetics.

KARL LAGERFIELD

CONCEPTUAL INFLUENCES

The origin of contemporary conceptual fashion may well be credited to the Japanese designers Rai Kawakubo, Yohoji

Yamamoto, Issey Miyake. For decades these designers have been producing the most intriguing, provocative fashion

by creating new ways of cutting and constructing. Conceptual collections are often beautiful, timeless, ageless, and

dislocated from most visual narratives, however they can also be challenging, abstract. There is usually little or no

decoration to obscure the essence of proportion, cut, finishes, or quality, of fabric, used

REI KAWAKUBO YOHOJI YAMAMOTO ISSEY MIYAKE

GLOBAL INFLUENCES

International developed the world and influence knowledge Japanese Kimono, Chinese Cheongsams, Indian Sari,

Tartans, Jacquard, Ikkat, Paisley, Russian Prints went on refining and developed into new fashion collections.

CHINESE CHEONGSAMS RUSSIAN PRINTS PRINTS

FORM AND FUNCTION

Functional garment like military wear and expeditions clothing, work wear and utility clothing fall under this category of

design there performance erogenous of the wearer activities and environment are paid attention while designing.

DRAPING

WHAT IS FASHION DRAPING?

• Draping technique is the technique means the way of

fabric changing.

The method of draping includes stitching the garment by

use of loosely hanging material to create flowing effect.

Draping needs ability to do exact fitting, fall and fullness.

Fashion draping is an important part of fashion

designing. It’s the process of positioning and pinning

fabric on dress to develop the structure of garment

design. It’s done with muslin. Fashion designers

drape garments in sections- front & back bodice,

front and back skirt. Only the right side of the fabric

is draped.

PROCESS OF DRAPING

MECHANISM DRAPING?

• Pieces of muslin are cut and prepared. It includes-

measuring, blocking, marking grain lines.

• Fabric is pinned to dress form and positioned to form

darts, tucks, to give shape and fit to the garment.

• Once the design is achieved, marking of seam lines

darts etc. are marked on muslin.

• After marking muslin is removed and laid on flat table

for trueing for giving smooth curves.

• Again the muslin is pinned on dress form along with

pinned darts to check fit accuracy.

• Muslin is removed and pressed flat to transfer markings

on paper, creating sewing pattern.

Designers have to consider many aspects while

draping fabrics like, material and GSM of fabric.

Materials like chiffon, satin, silk are used in draping.

Drape meter was used to determine a drape

coefficient. It contains a number from 0 to 100 in

written format.

Eg. Satin and muslin clothes have good draping

property than twill hosieries.

SURFACE DESIGN TECHNIQUE

• Surface design encompasses the coloring, patterning, and structuring of fiber and fabric. This involves creative

exploration of processes such as dyeing, painting, printing, stitching, embellishing, quilting, weaving, knitting, felting,

and papermaking, manipulation.

FABRIC PAINTING

EMBROIDERY

• Embroidery is the handicraft of decorating fabric or other materials with needle and thread. It may incorporate other

materials like, metal strips, pearls, beads quills and sequins.

• Stitches used- chain stitch, buttonhole or blanket stitch, running stitch, satin stitch, cross stitch.

PRINTS

• PRINTING is a process for reproducing text and images using a master form or template.

• Earliest examples- Cylinder seals, Cyrus cylinder, and Cylinders of Nabonidus.

For designing garments one has to have a good knowledge of elements and principles of design.

The elements play a major role in development of any design. Elements like line, shape, color, value, texture are used

as structural and decorative way on a garment so that the appearance comes out beautiful and pleasing.

In the subsequent pages I have presented how basic prints can create optical illusion on the garment.

Prints are decorative elements which can create beautiful textures on the garment. In this portfolio I have presented

using Photoshop the basic prints dress form. For designing garments one has to have a good knowledge of elements
