5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent introduction to fashion drawing, August 2, 2005

By	Jacqueline Giraud "dreamer of dreams" (Denton, TX USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I picked this one up used, for nearly nothing. Written for Fashion Students, this text is clear and simple, and teaches the reader how to translate their fashion imaginings into coherent drawings. Excellent for experienced sewers interested in learning to design their own fashions for the ground up, and any student/afficionado of fashion not already comfortable representing the human figure.
