The clothing designs have had a lot of detail added that were not probably part of the clothing of the period but which make it even more fun to color. The designs are by artist Ming-Ju Sun who has a number of coloring books on various fashions in the Dover family of product. Some of the designs are have intricate parts but I don't think I will have to use my
magnifying lamp for this book. I've included pictures of both fully colored samples that are printed in the coloring book.there are 31 designs in this coloring book. As with all of the Creative Haven books that I have used in the past, these are on a bright white page that is a fairly heavy stock. The designs are printed on one side of the page only and the edges of each page have good perforations which make it easy to remove from the book.all of my gel pens and markers bleed through on Creative Haven books and this book is no different. I use freezer paper in between the sheets (if I am keeping it in the book) or under the page if I remove it from the book. You can also put sheets of heavy stock paper in between if you don't have freezer paper handy.i have been coloring adult color books as a way to relieve the stress of the day. I love fashion, too, so coloring in this book is even more fun. It reminds me of when I was a child coloring in my old Barbie color books. That alone, makes the time fly by and my stress lift. Ming Ju Sung is a very gifted artist, and this latest of her fashion designs is different, and challenging to color. While the lines of thedrawings are clean and simple, the dresses are highly detailed and require patience to color well. I would suggest colored pencils,and gel pens for the best results. This is not a book for young children. Perhaps 12 and up. I think anyone younger would have adifficult time with all the detail. As an update I just finished coloring the book. I had to use very fine tip markers in a lot of the designson the dresses. Stabillp and Staedtler are the two markers I used. There are 20 colors in each plastic case. Different colors in each of them.surprisingly, the Prang inexpensive pencils worked very well on the green paper that Dover uses. I used them along with Prismacolor,andDerwent, and Dickl Blick. There are many choices of pencils, and seems to have most of them.this has been one of my favoritecoloring books. I love this coloring book. Not only is the artwork lovely, but the pages are one-sided and perforated. One of my favorites. I'm retired and I enjoy my adult coloring books. I spend hours coloring, the paper is of high quality, my pencils glide on smoothly. I really like that it's a blank page between each print. The price is easy on my pockets, since I'm on a fixed income. I like this book...the perforated pages make it easy to color one side only. The first few were wonderful but as I got further into the book, too many of the pictures are similar...but you can make it more interesting by color combinations and backgrounds. Here are some examples:
This coloring book arrived today and I just love it. I have already colored the one offered by the same author on 1950s fashions and went looking to see whether she offered another era of fashion that I resonate with. I know that I will really enjoy the Art Deco one too. I lived in a gorgeous Art Deco building in San Francisco, once upon a time. I'm quite partial to the styles of that era. When I noticed my daughter-in-law coloring in her son's coloring book, I realized she'd enjoy one of my favorite hobbies --adult coloring. She was hooked immediately. I started her with designs but she loved getting this as part of her Christmas gift. Now I need to get one for myself as I have finished a previously purchased coloring book of fashions. I absolutely love this coloring book. It's one of my favorites. The faces and outfits are beautiful. I know I'm going to have hours of relaxation and enjoyment with this coloring book.
