1 Elements of design

2 Elements of Design Line Texture Color Shape & Form Pattern TOOLS The elements of design are the tools we use to create a style or design.

3 Line in Fashion

4 Lines can deflect your gaze (arrows) Shorten/reduce the height of a person. Width can be added on top- broader shoulders. Can contain height. Make one look taller/longer. Lines can keep your gaze going. Can make things look slimmer, wider, or longer. Illusions of Line

5 Line Directions Vertical: Leads eye up and down, adds height and slimness. For best effect put vertical lines over an area you want to look thinner in.

6 Horizontal: Leads eye side to side, relaxed, restful feeling. Put this type of line where you want to look wider. Will make you appear shorter and heavier. Line Directions

7 Curved: Increases size, shape of figure, adds interest & softness, and is less conservative, more powerful than straight lines. Often Seen: round scoop necklines and scalloped edges. Line Directions

8 Diagonal: Slanted- vertical slant is slenderizing, horizontal slant adds width- versatile and interesting or vertical slant add height. Chevrons: stripes on a fabric (on the diagonal grain) matched at seams. Line Directions

9 Structural: Formed when parts of the garment are constructed. Seams, darts, pleats, tucks, and the edge of a garment. Most noticed when the garment is plain. Line Applications:

10 Decorative: Applied lines- for decoration and interest. Ruffles, braids, fringe, edging, top stitching, lace, tabs, flaps, appliqués, or buttons. Too much causes competition between parts and can be confusing. Line Applications:

19 Texture in Fashion

20 Where is texture found? In the thickness and appearance of fabric. What is it? The one element that you can see and feel What are the different textures we have here in class? Texture

21 Texture What words describe texture? Loopy, fuzzy, furry, soft, shiny, dull, bulky, rough, crisp, smooth, sheer How is texture created? By the fiber type, weaving or knitting process, or by the fabric finishes

22 Texture There are two types of texture: TACTILE Texture that can be felt by touch. (rough, prickly) VISUAL Texture that can be seen. (shiny, dull, matte)

23 Texture Why is texture important in fashion? It can increase or decrease the appearance of body size. It can draw added attention to a design.

24 Increasing size Which do you think would increase the appearance of body size? Shiny or glossy (reflect more light) Thick Bulky, shaggy, fuzzy, wrinkled

25 Decreasing size Which textures would decrease the appearance of body size? Dull (because they absorb light) Thin to mid-weight Smooth, flat surfaces

26 Pattern in Fashion

27 Naturalistic

28 Conventional

29 Geometric

30 Abstract

31 Color in Fashion

32 Color Wheel Hue: another term for color

33 Value: Lightness or darkness of a color. Tints & Shades Pure Hue Shade Tone Tint Pure Black Gray Pure White

34 Intensity: Brightness or dullness of a color. Tones Pure Hue Shade Tone Tint Pure Black Gray (or it s compliment) Pure White

35 Psychology of Color Warm vs Cool

36 Color in Fashion (Color Schemes)

37 Neutral One, two, or three achromatic neutrals, may or may not vary in the degree of warmness or coolness, lightness or darkness, brightness or dullness Possible colors: black and white, combination of browns Effect: vary in mood depending on the degree of light and dark value contrast Are most effective if the degree of lightness or darkness in your hair and/or skin coloring is repeated in the lightness or darkness of the clothing

38

39 Accented neutral One color added to other neutrals to form a scheme. Possible colors: black, white & red, browns with light blue Effect: draws attention to the one added hue

40

41 Monochromatic Mono means one, refers to the tints tones and shades of one color Possible color combinations are limitless! Mint green and forest green Generally calming, however it depends on the hue

42

43 Triad Three colors equally spaced on the color wheel Possible colors: tints, tones and shades of primary or secondary colors Very exciting and stimulating if used in full strength.

44

45 Analogous Often referred to as adjacent. Two, three, or four hues that lie next to one another on the color wheel. All hues have one hue in common. Possible colors (Can include tints, tones & shades) Yellow-green, yellow, yellow-orange, orange Feeling created: can be calming or exciting depending on whether they come from the cool or warm side of the color wheel. This color scheme is most effective if one of the hues repeats some aspect of your personal coloring eyes, hair

46

47 Complementary Combine two colors from the opposite side of the color wheel. Possible colors: red & green, blue & orange Feeling associated: stimulating due to opposite visual characteristics. By dulling the intensity or value, calming effect may be achieved. Can be very flattering to personal coloring, and versatile

48
