This book takes the reader through the most important uses of a sketchbook, beginning with approaches and sources for research and capturing colour, silhouette and texture, including drawing and photography. Find out how to evaluate your research and establish key elements and themes, with the creation of story boards and mood boards. Next chapter, design development, guides you through problem solving, garment considerations and detailing. Finally, there is assembly and realization during which you refine the work, and its presentation. There are great exercises and case studies to see how others have worked through their sketchbook to a final collection.
