Description

Lingerie Design: A Complete Course by Pamela Powell explores the creative process behind this often-mysterious aspect of the fashion industry. Discover how color, silhouettes, and decoration are chosen, and how the work of 30 lingerie designers from around the world showcases their individuality and working methods.

Beautifully illustrated with inspirational images from the designers' collections, this book provides a practical approach to designing and constructing lingerie, sleepwear, and foundation garments. Step-by-step illustrations demonstrate the basics of slopers and show how to manipulate them into different styles, while advice is given on working with specialty fabrics and construction techniques.

A final chapter on embellishment shows how to add unique and personal touches to garments, achieving a luxurious finish. With specially commissioned photographs and diagrams, this comprehensive guide is perfect for aspiring designers and industry professionals looking to expand their skills.
