Download or read book Costume Design and Illustration written by Ethel Traphagen and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethel Traphagen's work Costume Design and Illustration is a detailed textbook for use by those working to create and accurately represent costumes using illustrations. This is clearly intended to be an instructional work for aspiring and practicing costume designers. Before offering technical advice, Traphagen highlights what she believes to be an important distinction between designers and illustrators. Designers are those who must create a garment from their imagination and represent it on a page, whereas illustrators must take a garment that exists and accurately represent it through a drawing. Traphagen believes it is vital for both designers and illustrators to have an intimate knowledge of the skills and requirements of the other's task, and thus presents this book as essential to both groups. The information presented in this textbook follows a logical progression. Early chapters detail strategies and techniques for effective sketching, including information on sketching both with and without models. Later chapters discuss specific methods to use when sketching, the use of colour in illustrations, the principles of effective fashion design, and specific information on period fabric selection, amongst other topics. Costume Design and Illustration is a brief and accessible work. The images presented within the book are useful and effectively illuminate the text. While this book would be most useful for those with some experience in costume design and illustration, it can also serve as a worthy introduction to the topic. At less than 200 pages, it can be read in a day, but would probably be best served by slowly digesting the techniques presented within and spending ample time practicing. For anybody involved in costume design, or for those interested in getting into the art, Costume Design and Illustration would be an excellent addition to your library.

Download or read book A Reading and Reference List on Costume Classic Reprint written by Brooklyn Public Library and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Reading and Reference List on Costume This list is in part composed of references used in answering ques tions asked of the Reference Department, and of references furnished by several of the branch librarians as having been useful in branch reference work. The primary purpose is to furnish a partial guide to the resources of the Brooklyn Public Library on the subject of costume. Completeness has not been attempted. Practically no references to periodicals are included, as these are generally available through Poole's Index and the Readers' Guide. Post-cards, works of art, jewelry, and other articles primarily artistic in nature are not included. A few unindexed periodicals, especially useful in the study of costume, are listed. It is hoped that the list, in addition to its use to the patrons of the library, may serve as a contribution toward a bibliography of the subject. Almost all the books listed are at the Montague Branch, but duplicates of many may be found at the other branches, or the books may be obtained through the Interchange Department. This list was prepared two years ago by Mr. Frank K. Walter, now vice-director of the New York State Library School, while he was Assist ant Reference Librarian of the Brooklyn Public Library. Additions have since been made by the Reference Librarian and the Assistant Reference Librarian of the Brooklyn Public Library.
