Every aspect of fashion illustration is covered in this essential reference for the fashion student. It addresses not only the clothes, but deals with essentials that make the total look: faces and hairstyles, heads and hats, fashion details and a wide variety of materials.

From the Publisher:
"What distinguishes Mr Ireland's book from many other figure-drawing text books is the illustrated step-by-step method of making fabric fall naturally in response to body movements." --Sunday Telegraph.

"It is just the book for anyone who wants to draw clothes to wear." --Housecraft.

The book covers all aspects of fashion: menswear and women's wear along with clothes for children. It deals with faces and hairstyles, head and hats; with fashion details such as collars, sleeves, skirts, pleats and folds; and with the wide variety of materials, and their individual qualities out of which fashion is created. There are also sections on the rather different approach to fashion illustration necessary for advertising, and on the most persuasive way in which the drawings themselves should be presented. In addition to the author's own diagrams and drawings the illustrations include a selection of old photographs and fashion plates.

About the Author:
Patrick John Ireland is a visiting lecturer at the London College of Fashion and at other schools and colleges throughout Great Britain and Europe. He is also a freelance designer and illustrator and the author of An Introduction to Fashion Design, Fashion Design Illustration: Women, The Encylopedia of Fashion Details and Figure Templates for Fashion Illustration, all published by Batsford.
