Book Reviews of Fashion Design Drawing Course
Book Review: Teaches you to present better in a different way!
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this book! I have just ordered it and was hoping to strengthen my figure presentation drawings. But what I got was what I wanted in a different way. This book tells you were to get inspirtation from. So I was like, ok, how about drawing. Some people may say it's misleading saying there is no drawing techniquies found in the book, but really if you think about it, there is. It tells you to look at buildings, musuems and more and use what you see to put into your designs. So the techniquies are the shapes and colors and when you put them together, it looks great! You do not have to be the best artist in the world, just using the patterns and everything will make your presentation even better. I would definitly recommend this book to anyone who wants to be a fashion desginer but doesn't think they can think up of that many designs. Or think they can't draw. Basically anyone can become one who has patience and is creative!
