Adobe Illustrator: A Fashion Designer's Handbook

Adobe Illustrator: A Fashion Designer's Handbook

by Marianne Centner (Author), Frances Vereker (Author)

Synopsis

This book provides easy to understand, step-by-step instructions and diagrams showing how to use Adobe Illustrator to create flat drawings, working drawings and storyboards for the fashion industry. Hand drawings are no longer good enough for an industry which demands increased productivity, profitability and accuracy. Adobe Illustrator enables the user to create clear and detailed drawings that satisfy the industry's needs. Adobe Illustrator has become the industry standard, taking over from other software packages. Although Adobe Illustrator is a powerful CAD program, it is difficult to grasp quickly. This book provides the building blocks which enable fashion students and designers to get started quickly while learning the more sophisticated facilities as they become more fluent. Here they are shown simply, concisely and in a highly practical way all that new users need to know to begin to create acceptable work.
