5. Fashion is a more then wearing good clothes it is about presenting a
person’s image in Society , we generally see people accepting
fashion due to pee pressure, Image in the society and when a
person wants a change to brighten his life. There are many reasons
behind what we wear.
• Protection from cold ,rain and snow :- Mountain climbers wear
high – tech outwear to avoid frostbite and over – exposure.
• Physical attention :- 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 part of
their body except their eyes.
• Identification and tradition :- Judges wear robes ,people in the
military wear uniform, brides wear long white dresses.
Fashion as a Person’s Image

6. Within the sphere of Technology Industries , design technology is
perhaps the fastest growing today. with new technologies emerging
rapidly and industries changing complexion, more and more job
opportunities are up for the taking .It is estimated that India will have
a shortfall of five lakh people in the design sector by 2010-11 but not
all gradates will be employable .Thus bringing the gap between talent
and the skills required by the industry is important. only Today, one in
every four designers is employable and only 10% of the design
graduates manage to get employment in the design industry. Hence
the student should understand the basic requirement of the industry
and exhibit that ability .
Fashion Industry

7. This is what I learn here at Dezyne E’cole college creating fashion
doesn’t entail a vivid imagination and instinct for creativity. It also
involve many decisions and myriad techniques , focus on a central
idea. Dezyne E’cole Fashion design made me build a strong
foundation in terms of design sence, Conceptualisation
independent research ,creative application and artistic experience
Learning Experience

8. As a part of fashion industry I am training my self through
formal education in Diploma programme in build with this
study. During the course duration of diploma programme I had
an exposure towards practical working in fashion design.

9. FOUNDATION DESIGN

10. Colour is a most vital tool in the hands of fashion
designer. It is the most perceptible and hence is a
central to success and failure of a designer
scheme.it is therefore very important designer that
a designer has a full knowledge and understanding
of its tool.

The Dark Green is
equal in the value to
the Brown
Compare the Blue and Red Rectangles to the Grey
Rectangles or either side of each color. Which Grey is equal in
value to the color ? It may be helpful to stand at a distance
and blur your eyes. If the edge between the two area
disappears, the values are equal.

27. PATTERN ENGINEERING

28. Fashion Designing runs the garment from eveningwear to
sportswear, Women’s wear to Men’s wear and Kids wear to
knitwear. Garment Construction is popularly called Pattern
Engineering has a great importance in fashion design industry. The
Companies like van heuson,dockers levis, adidas etc. are the
providers of perfect fit and this is what we learn at Dezyne E’cole
through the art of pattern making.
A slop pattern [ home sewing ] and block pattern [ industrial
production ] is custom – fitted basic pattern from which pattern for
many different styles can be developed.
The Draping method involves creating a Maslin mock up by
pinning fabric directly on a form then transferring the muslin outline
and makings onto a paper pattern or using the muslin as the pattern
it self.
The flat pattern Draping method is the most commonly used
method in Menswear.
Garment Construction

29. The Flat pattern method where the entire pattern is drafted on a flat
surface from measurements ,using the ruler and curve and straight
Edges. As a fashion designer I use various tools and measuring
devices to create a toil pattern on dummy.

35. The flat- pattern method is where the entire
pattern is drafted on the flat surface measurement
. Under garment construction we learn about the
measuring techniques on the dress form. That can
be seen here:-
Different ways to taking measurements:-
• Circumference measurements
• Horizontal measurements
• Vertical measurements

50. Dart Manipulation is a slash spread and pivotal transfer making
technique to transfer dart excess to one location to another for
design variation .It is a beginning of pattern manipulation for
generating design patterns. It require both artistic and technical
skills to manage and control the pattern.
PRINCIPLE 1
 One Dart Series
 Two Dart Series
A Dart may be transfer to any
location around the pattern
outlines from the designated
pivotal point without affecting
the size or fit of the garment.
PRINCIPLE 2 Added fullness
To increase garment to an amount
greater then that provided by the
dart excess of working pattern.
The length and the width within
the pattern’s outline must be
increased.
PRINCIPLE 3 Contouring
To fit the contour of the upper torso closer then the basic garment
the pattern must be reduced within its frame to fit the dimension of
the body above, below and between the bust mounds and shoulder
blades.
