Fashion illustrators can work in a variety of environments, including fashion houses, design studios, and as freelancers, and the work can be quite diverse and interesting, especially in the case of people who are very talented. Work in this field usually requires a degree from an art or fashion school, along with extensive experience in the industry.<br /> <br /> One of the most classic jobs for a fashion illustrator is in the sketching of concepts which have not yet been realized. When fashion designers start to develop a new line, they rely on fashion illustrators to bring their ideas to life so that they can have images to use in design and to sell the line before prototypes have been made. A fashion illustrator may work on everything from shoes to hats, developing and fleshing out concepts for designers.<br /> <script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-1947024738301801"; /* 728x15, T, created 04/12/10(t, home) */ google_ad_slot = "3955034832"; google_ad_width = 728; google_ad_height = 15; //--> </script><br /> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script><br /> Fashion illustrators can also develop patterns which can be used in the production of prototypes and garments on the production line. Many fashion illustrators, for example, work for companies which make sewing patterns. The fashion illustrator draws the garments and the instructions for their construction so that home sewers and seamstresses have an idea of what the garment should look like when it is finished.<br /> <br /> Illustrators can also work on ad campaigns and other projects in which fashion illustration is desired. Using paintings, drawings, and sketches can create a timeless effect which some companies find very effective in the marketing of their products, and this technique also eliminates the need to produce prototypes, find models, and hold photography sessions. This can be an advantage when product lines are still in development, or when a company is too small to invest heavily in production before it has orders for its products.<br /> <script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-1947024738301801"; /* 728x15, T, created 04/12/10(t, home) */ google_ad_slot = "3955034832"; google_ad_width = 728; google_ad_height = 15; //--> </script><br /> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script><br /> Skilled fashion illustrators need to stay on top of market trends, and be able to predict emerging trends in fashion. In addition to producing images for specific projects, they may also make more general portfolio pieces to use in demonstrations of emerging trends, and to give designers ideas for work which may attract interest from the public.<br /> <br /> Technical skills in drawing and painting are also critical for fashion illustrators. It is necessary to be able to capture the spirit of a design along with its precise lines, look, and dimension, and to be able to play with proportion and other aspects of art in order to achieve a desired look. Having a good sense of color, shape, and image dynamics is also important for a fashion illustrator, whether one is working on a sketch pad or in a computer program.Textilesindepth.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07121130859555627306noreply@blogger.com
