What is a fashion or a trend? Basically no one would be able to give a perfect definition to this question since it differs according to the personal beliefs and the age. A small research conducted to figure out what is a clothing fashion is.
8 years old Fadhila says: “fashion is dressing colorfully and nicely, dressing like crazy”
15 years old Kevin says: “buying new clothes and wearing to show off, especially girls”
22 years Rahma says: “setting up some unique clothing trend to represent myself in the society”
45 years Mrs. Dissanayaka says: “well, fashion is just imitating and dressing same as others”
65 years Mr. Farook says: “craziness about clothes”
80+ Mrs. Jazeema says: “fashion is being beautiful”
Wikipedia says: “costume, has become so linked in the public eye with the term "fashion" that the more general term "costume" has in popular use mostly been relegated to special senses like fancy dress or masquerade wear, while the term "fashion" means clothing generally, and the study of it”
These statements indicate different people have different opinions about clothing and trends. Basically demographic elements affect the fashion behaviors of people.
Basically no one can find out when the exact fashion revolution has begun because the trends have been set as according to the cultural changes and the civilizations. The major countries which initiated the fashion designing are Great Britain, Ancient Rome, China, Japan, France and Italy. However, only five nations have established truly international reputations in fashion design. These countries are France, Italy, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, and Japan.
Sometimes people really like to design and wear a dress as according to their own wish but many people do not have the required knowledge to design a cloth. In the industry there are main people who are in charge of departments to produce the ultimate cloth.
· A fashion designer : brings out the concept of the cloth. · A pattern maker : measure out the required garments for the cloth. Nowadays this is done by computer software such as AUTOCAD · Tailor : stitches the cloth. · Textile Designer : Designs the fabric for the cloth. · Stylist : coordinates jewelries and accessories for the designed cloth. · Fashion forecaster : forecast the future of the cloth by altering the colors styles etc. · Fit model : dresses the cloth and checking the accuracy of the design during manufacturing. · Model : dressing the ultimate output and representing fashion shows. To design a cloth first has to sketch out the figure of the model. Steps to create the basic Sketch
· Start by drawing your balance line a 90° angle down the center of the paper and dividing it into nine equal segments. Then lightly pencil in the head and neck (1 1/2 heads).
· D raw in the shoulder line. Create the bust line and torso (2 heads).
· D raw the waistline. Draw the hips and crotch (1 head).
· D raw the legs (4 1/2 heads). Draw the feet (1 head in heels).
· Draw the arms and hands, keeping in mind that, generally, the elbow hits at the waistline and the wrist at the crotch.
· Place all appropriate style lines (princess seams, waistline, neck, etc.)
· Repeat these steps until the croquis (Basic sketch in Italy) is in proportion and looks balanced.
This is the way of creating the sketch of the figure and the next step is about how to design the cloth. Keep in touch you will get to know a lot. Regards Sharmila Khan
