Why Fashion?? Fashion is more than wearing good clothes it is about presenting a person’s image in the society, we
generally see people accepting fashion due to the peer pressure, image in the society and when a person
wants a change t brighten his life. There are many reasons we wear what we wear.
Protection from cold, rain and snow: mountain climbers wear high-tech outerwear to avoid
frostbite and over-exposure.
Physical attraction: many styles are worn to inspire “chemistry.”
Emotions: we dress “up” when we’re happy and “down” when we’re upset.
Religious expression: Orthodox Jewish men wear long black suits and Islamic women cover
every part of their body except their eyes.
Identification and tradition: judges wear robes, people in the military wear uniforms, brides
wear long white dresses.
What is Fashion?? Fashion that appears today is different from what is existed in the past. If we see the prehistoric time we
began with wearing animals skins to cover ourselves from the heat and the cold weather conditions.
Fashion is something we deal with every day. Even people who say they don’t care what they wear
choose clothes every morning that say a lot about them and how they feel that day. One certain thing in
the fashion world is change.
History of Fashion The clothes during that time were stitched with the sinuses of animals which worked as threads and the
bones acted as needles, slowly as time passed on, people discovered the fiber and the weaving. This can
be clearly seen from excavation of Mohanjodharo Harappa. The bust of Shawl Clad man centers. From
that time to a time in Europe and America that is from the 17th century to the present emphasizing the
last 100 years, we find fashion to be well developed.
In the early 18th century France, dominated the international fashion was worn only by the Royal people,
due to which it because one of the cause for the French revolution of 1789.After this period we find
tremendous change in the fashion industry. There was the birth of the first Sewing Machine at the same
time textile industry grew up.
Textile mills were established to produce clothes in America and New England in 1980. Frances Cavot
Lowell developed the power looms and by 1847 we had new people working in textile industries in
America. This led to the growth of the middle class both economic and social. They started spending
money in the luxury of life, better clothing, money give the new middle class. And this led to the
development of business and society, also influence fashion trends and it was from here fashion become
a Status Symbol and visual means of the show off wealth.
Fashion Industry It was during this time men adopted business suits and women dress code was elaborated. At first
fashion was a cottage industry but soon the readymade market grew up and at the same time the mass
production developed. The first departmental store developed in the year 1826 and slowly after these
mere changes was developed due to growth in communication, leisure activities, and advancement in
industry technology.
The retail industry expended day by day and the early 20th century saw a growth of specialty stores
which led to the expansion of chain stores example: JC Penny in 1912. During the same time the Indian
Fashion industry was developed but it was in the nascent stage.
Today this industry has grown up and people have understood what fashion is and why we require
fashion. Every person wants to dress up look good. Million and thousands of people are depend on this
industry and working toward giving the latest and the best to the people. The government has taken steps
to develop this area to educate of nurture designing.
Government also took initiative to educate people in the field of designing as this industry required
formal education to give better fashion to the customers; government initiated the opening of NID and
NIFT (Ministry of HDP).
NIFT (National Institute of Fashion Technology) is a fashion institute in India. It was set up in 1986
under the aegis of the Ministry of Textiles, Government of India and is an institution of design,
management and technology for the international fashion business. NIFT is the founder member of
“Fashion Schools’ Foundation of the World”, which comprises 34 fashion schools worldwide. With its
head office in New Delhi, NIFT has centers at Mumbai, Kolkata, Kangra, Gandhi nagar, Hyderabad,
Chennai, Bangalore, Rae Bareli, Patna, Shillong, Bhopal, Mangattuparambu, Bhubaneswar and Jodhpur
where it offers four-year bachelor and two-year master programmes in the areas of Design, Management
and Technology.
NID (National Institute of Design) is a design school in India. The institute functions as an autonomous
body under the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion, Ministry of Commerce and Industry,
Government of India. NID is recognized by the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research (DSIR)
under Ministry of Science and Technology, Government of India, as a scientific and industrial design
research organization.

Apart from them many colleges and government state universities started providing communication,
formal education. The degree programme, Master Degree programme in fashion designing apart from
the diploma programme. This led to employment in the fashion industry so that people could wear better
designed clothes.
Many foreign brands of fashion existed in India today to give latest fashion example: Levis, Benetton
etc. all these company provides their design to the customers because of the Indian Design Market is
suffering. This industry requires some youngsters with proper design development skills to bring the
Indian design industry upon the Global Market.
Seen all the above area, I have compiled my project to bring notice what is my idea of design and the
skill set which I possessed.
My Skills for Fashion Industry
Fashion Design industry is a very vast industry and it is gaining popularity day by day as people are
spending more on how they look. The economic status of the Indian youngsters is improving and boys
and girls are very conscious about their carrier. They have started working the moment they graduated;
this has led to a high disposable income. This has led towards making the youngsters concentrate on
their appearance. They have started paying attention to how they look and what they wear?
A number of brands of fashion are opening in the market to provide the same to them and the fashion
industry started paying attention to the basic level of fashion and it finishes them, concentrating only on
the design. The fabrics come in a variety of finishes like shrink resistant, crease resist, fragrance induced
etc. These fabric are then used for designing garments, this industry works on a very high pressure and to
create any dress one has to pay attention to the shortest lead time. If the lead time is not paid attention to
the dress created will not be in fashion anymore. Seeing the points discussed here which are only few,
this industry has a team of people working, to give the client to dress he purchases.
I am part of this industry, the fashion design industry and to work in this industry I need to present by
skills to this industry. I need to present my skills to the industry experts. The skills that I have learnt
during my 2 year in Bachelors of Science in Fashion Technology and 1 year diploma in Fashion
Technology.
My Working Places
In all the below photographs I have shown the places where I use to innovate my ideas in designing. All
these places helped me in my designing procedure. The Dezyne E’Cole library helped me to keep myself
update with upcoming trends and also allowed me to grab all the knowledge of designing. The Drafting,
Draping, Stitching and Sketching Lab helped me to design my ideas on 2D form and 3D stand.
Technical Lab where I worked on Advance Designing Soft wares like Corel Draw, Orbito Pattern
Designer on which advance 2D and 3D simulation of garment can be seen. Stitching Lab helped me in
transformation of 2D garment into 3D through Electronic Stitching Machine. Material Lab is a place
where I look a feel of the fabric available in the market. All these areas helped me a lot to learn
designing from basic to innovative areas.
Art of Colors:
Design means to create, innovate from the basic level of working and to excel in this field. I started my
basic from learning the art of how we are attracted by anything how a person pays attention towards my
design that is the vibrant worn of colors. I mastered the art of color combination, emphasis was paid on
the various color as to how they provide an optical illusion on the human body and how can we
effectively use this feature of colors to create an impactful image. Colors make us feel a certain way.
Think about the feeling, flavor, or emotion we would like our dress to convey. Color can influence our
emotions, our actions and how we respond to various people, things and ideas. Much has been studied
and written about color and its impact on our daily lives.
There are some of my work of colors which I had done during my studies.
Principals of design
Every design demands arranging of its components in manners which are best dictated by certain
principles. These principles of design guide the arrangement of elements of design to make it a good
piece of art. It is important for any artist or designer to arrange the elements in a pleasing manner.
Hence, knowledge and understanding of these principles is important.
The principles of design are:-
1. Repetition
2. Gradation
3. Harmony
4. Dominance
5. Balance
6. Contrast
7. Radiation
8. Proportion
9. Rhythm
10. Unity
Repetition
When any element of design- dot, line, shape, color, texture is used more than once in a garment,
repetition occurs. It makes the eye movement over the design, hence is directional. This movement
united the design. Human body has symmetry, hence the garment elements are also placed in some
symmetry, example sleeves, pockets, collar lapels. Buttons, trims and embroidery on a garment can also
have symmetry. Repetition can be of various types. It could be regular, irregular, inverted, alternate or
parallel.
Gradation
When identical elements change on every repetition in increasing or decreasing order, it is called
gradation. It is repetition with variation. It is uniting but moving in a direction. Gradation can be seen in
shapes, color, line and size.
Harmony
When one or more qualities of the design are similar, harmony occurs between them. These similar
features are repeated on the garment.
Tones of same hue create harmony if put together. White and black can be made harmonious through
adding gray with it. The design elements can create harmony by linking with the mood of the garment.
Dominance
Dominance principle has the highlighting function with each design having a focal point or a point
holding the design. Usually there is one dominance or emphasis point. When there is no dominant
feature the eye becomes bored and restless.
Balance
Weight of the different elements of the design is equally distributed to create balance. This gives
stability to the whole design. In some designs, the elements are repeated exactly the same way as on the
other side of the axis. It is like a reversed mirror image. Balance in a garment can be adjusted by moving
of seams, yokes, panels, and darts by adding or subtracting fullness and also by arranging openings.
Contrast
A contrast occurs when two or more totally unrelated features occur in one design. Contrast is the
principle which draw attention. Contrast sometimes becomes very important in a design, on the other
hand too much of contrast creates confusion.
Radiation
From a central point, there is a movement of elements in all directions, this is called radiation. The
movement creates interest on the central point from where the elements radiate out to the outer edges of
the elements. Radiation is directional in nature, it can be in similar directions, several directions,
opposite directions or all directions. Radiation principle is applicable to elements of line and shape only.
Proportion
It is the way in which all parts in a design are related to each other as to the design by scale and size.
Proportion is usually the best when all design areas are not exactly the same. But the relationship
between the unequal parts should be pleasing to the eye. Sometimes, too much difference or too little
difference also does not create ant interest. By changing the proportions, different styles can be created
from the same design. Different proportions have different illusions. If the waistline of the dress is
lowered or raised, the proportion of the dress elements like, bodice, skirt, flare etc. is change. The result
in the varied illusions.
Rhythm
The elements are placed in a manner that eye moves in a direction, this motion of the eye causes rhythm.
The features of the design are so arranged that the eye moves over the garment, in an orderly predictable
manner. Rhythmic effect becomes stronger when the pattern is repeated.it could be an identical repetitive
pattern or at irregular intervals throughout the design. Rhythm is seen on gathers, pleats, frills, drapes,
flowing hemlines, seams, laces etc.
Unity
All elements of design strive to have unity when placed together in a piece of art. The elements of design
and principles of design should be so placed that neither should be overdone. There should be no
competition between the elements. A completely united design is that which spoils with the removal or
addition of even a single dot, line, shape, color or texture. The elements are placed in perfect harmony
with each other.
Fashion Terminology
Fashion terminology are the basic terms that we use in our daily life related to fashion. This is important
for us to read these terminologies.

Fashion history
Fashion is a general term for a popular style or practice, especially in clothing, footwear, accessories,
makeup, body piercing or furniture.
According to fashion cycle fashion repeat itself after a particular time. Fashion history gives us
information about fashion in previous years.
Some famous looks of fashion history:-
Flapper look: - Flapper look is introduced in 1920’s after First World War. A flapper was initially
a derogatory term, but soon was used to describe any young woman of the mid 1920’s who wore cloche
hats, bobbed cut hair. In this era tubular dresses with shorter skirts with pleats, gathers or slits are in
fashion.
Flair look: - This look is introduced in 1930’s. In this era
majority of dresses were cut on the bias grain to give the dress a
flowing look at the bottom. Fabrics such as silk, satin, organza, net,
chiffon, brocade, velvet and lace were used to great effect.
Disco look: - Disco look is popular in 1970’s era. It is known as
three piece suits for men and wrap around rayon or jersey dresses for
women. This is known disco look because at this time people are
crazy for disco. Colors are multicolored like disco lights. Make up
was garish and glittery. This time boys used makeup like girls and they
wear ear rings etc. like girls.
Punk look: - Punk look is introduced in fashion after disco look.
Punk as a style originated from London from the designer “Vivienne
Westwood” and her partner Malcolm McLaren. Safety pins became
nose and ear jewelry and they colored their hairs with trendy colors.
Punk fashion can be traced to the ripped jeans, torn t- shirts, scrappy
haircuts and worn torn leather jackets.
Christian Dior’s new look: - The French designer Christian
Dior introduced the classic modern pencil skirt in the late 40’s (1947) using the term H- line to describe
its shape. Dior created his skirt while envisioning the hobble skirt his mother would wear in the early
1900’s.
Fabric Study
A dress cannot be made beautiful if I haven’t mastered the knowledge of fabrics which are made from
natural and man-made fibers. For understand the characteristics of different fabrics I had done a market
survey for knowing the different fabrics. Fabric or cloth is a flexible artificial material that is made by a
network of natural or artificial fibers. The example is thread or yarn which is formed by weaving or
knitting as in textiles. Cloth is made in many varying strengths and degrees of durability. Some common
fabrics which are usually used for manufacturing clothes are cotton, silk, wool, nylon, polyester etc.
After studying about all these fabrics I had done a market survey to see what the fabrics that is in fashion
now days. There are some of my pictures of gaining knowledge about different fabric.
Weaving
Fabric Manipulation
After understand the properties and the characteristics of fabrics we had tried to make different
innovative fabrics in our college campus. I had done different types of manipulation on fabric to give
different effect in it. Through this activity I had learnt how to give a decorative effect to a simple fabric.
Knitting
During my learning curve I had learnt about the knitting, how knitted garment can be make, machinery
used in knitting Industries. For understand this process we had visited at Jain Readymade Garment in
Ajmer. Where we had seen circular knitting machine and learnt about the whole process of making a pair
of socks.
By this visit I had learnt how the knitting machinery works, which needle is used in machineries, how
socks can be made by circular machines, how they give different patterns and names in them and after
making the socks the pair transfer to the interlock department and then pressing and packing department.
KNITTING MACHINERY
Pattern Making
I have learned the art of Flat Pattern making of women’s traditional and western wear, children garment
and men’s garment with more emphasis on manipulating darts, style lines, sleeves, skirts and dresses on
paper. The same draft was taken on Orbito pattern designer.
Apart from Pattern Drafting I have also learnt the layout and estimation of the garment, as it is very
important for the designer to avoid fabric wastage.
Further pages I have shown the different techniques through which the Pattern Drafting can be made like
Flat Pattern Drafting, 2-D drafts made on Orbito Pattern Designer.
Draping on 3-D stand
To design any garment a fashion designer should have an insight of ingredients of the garment. These
are the most important features of any garment because we see a dress on a human form which is vertical
but wear it horizontally. This gives us a clear indication that a student of fashion should skills about
basic, elements, principles of design.
This gives us a clear indication that a student of fashion should have strong skill about the basic elements
and principles of design.
I have mastered the art of fabric drape on toile this help me in expressing my idea through sketch and
then moving on the art of draping. 3-D stand draping art lets me visualize my ideas sketched on paper
life on a mannequin this is an art which loved the most because I work without paper pattern the feel of
fabric and the dress form help me to design effectively.
Sketching and Illustration
Very base of Fashion Designing is illustration. Before manufacturing a costume or an accessory the first
thing a Fashion Designer prefers is to see a visual picture is what is to be created. This is very necessary
to get an idea on how it will look on models when they wear it in a fashion show. By means of fashion
illustration the fashion designers can make changes to the ideas and create new one.
If the fashion designer wants to make any alternation to his creation then the illustration provides that
flexibility. To express ones idea of design one must be knowledgeable towards expressing on paper, to
express the idea I had experience on developing croques of female figure and mastered the art of
showing the fabric drapes on them. This helps me in expressing my ideas through sketches. There is
some of my illustration work which I am showing below by pictures.
Corel Draw
For designing my layouts and presentations I had mastered vector graphic software Corel Draw which
helps me to visualize my design specification and pages. Few of my works are compiled there. For a
designer, Corel Draw Graphics Suite is a trusted graphic design software solution. With its content-rich
environment and professional graphic design, photo-editing and website design software, where we have
everything which we need to express our design, style and creativity with endless possibilities. Here I am
presenting some of my work which I had done on Corel.
Kids Wear Project
This a kids wear project designed for 3-5 years kid. This designed according to comfort of kid. This is
designed by using Peter Pan collar, Puff Sleeve, Pyjama, Placket & A-line Silhouette etc…
Market Survey for Fabric
