This is a fabulous tool for study of costume renderings!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Costume Design: Techniques of Modern Masters (Paperback)
I have searched for this book in hardback form and I am so glad it is back as a paperback. The conversations with the designers are invigorating and enlightening for all of us in the design business. It is also a constant source for excellence in costume renderings. I find myself going back to the pages over and over again for refinement and inspiration in my own rendering techniques. A must have for every costume designer!

Not what you think it is...,
By Lady Kalessia (Laura) "Historical Costumer" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Costume Design: Techniques of Modern Masters (Paperback)
While this book is absolutely gorgeous, it isn't a book *about* costume rendering. It's not a how-to book, but I'll add that it's a wonderful book for inspiration. The text portion (that I find is often skipped over in favor of looking at the pretty pictures) is worth a read as well, since it goes into some detail on various costumers' processes. Good book, but not an essential read for costume students.

Great for inspiration!,
By B. Dalager "avgsuperheroine" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Costume Design: Techniques of Modern Masters (Paperback)
This is a great book that I bought when I was starting out in costuming. I found it to be a fun read for those who are interested in costume design. It isn't really a resourse book, but if you love costuming or design, it has wonderful interviews with famous costume designers that I found interesting and inspiring. For those times of the year that I wonder why I am still in the costume business (October) this is a great book to rekindle my love for design and theatre. The renderings are beautiful. For designers who do renderings, these would be good to refer to, to see different styles of presentation.
