5.0 out of 5 stars Good, clear information, Oct 6 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Illustrating Fashion (Paperback)
A very broad but useful reference book about illustrating for fashion. Real hints and tips and a real analysis of what is required when illustrating. The clear categories and breakdowns, like the media techniques and fabric representation sections are very useful. The use of sketch books and working drawing sections are helpful to students. A very thorough book.
