2nd Year Diploma in Fashion Technology

In my study program I have learnt about the Elements of Design as they are the
fundamental components of any design composition. They are required to be arranged
as components for creating design compositions. Elements include Point, Line, Shape,
Color, Texture and Value. A point always has a dimension and it is the simplest of the
design element. Lines has various types such as Vertical line, Horizontal line, and
Diagonal line and each line has a different impact on the human body. These lines help in
creating shapes. I have created various basic shapes like- pentagon, hexagon, heptagon
etc. which will help me in pattern making, graphic design and sari design.
The golden ratio- in the form of golden rectangle in which the ratio of the longer side to
the shorter is the golden ratio, believing this proportion to be aesthetically pleasing. The
Fibonacci sequence ties directly into the golden Ratio because if you take any two
successive Fibonacci numbers their ratio is very close to the golden ratio.

I have also worked on Islamic patterns which are made with geometric patterns rather
than figurative images. These patterns are created using repeated circles and squares
which maybe overlapped or interlace to form complex patterns.
After making all the two dimensional designs, I have worked upon forms and paper
foldings.
I have learnt how the principles of design ascertain the manner in which the elements of
design are organized to create a framework for design. They are termed as Designers
tools for design solutions. The formula to create good designs must incorporate a
harmonious combination of all the design elements and principles.
My work has been shown in the following pages.

Line is the simplest of the design element. It has linear dimension. It is a series of connected
points. All lines have direction, Length and width.
Line has various types:
1. Line By Position
This involves straight lines, diagonal lines,
intersecting lines, and parallel lines.
LINE
2. Line By Direction
This includes converging and radiating lines.
3. Line Weight
This refers to adding weight to a line.
Radiating Converging

Lines are of various types, and they can
be used in a garment in a variety of
ways. It could be through print, weave,
surface ornamentation, structural,
decorative, trims and haberdashery as
well. Here I have made few different
types of lines. It could be zigzag, clouds,
loops and many more.

SHAPE
In the fashion industry, the term silhouette is normally used to describe the shape of garment.
Silhouette is a fundamental consideration in the design process. Lines help in creating shapes
and they can be incorporated in fashion in variety of ways. It could be structural in the form of
yoke, gores, panels or decorative like print, surface ornamentation etc. Shape can be used in a
dress in a variety of ways as follows,

Islamic patterns are made with
geometric patterns rather than
figurative images. This art is often
made on combinations of squares
and circles, which are overlapped
or interlaced, to create intricate
and complex patterns.

Islamic motifs and the working

FORM
In fashion design, form refers to the silhouette. Shapes are used in creating forms
which are three dimensional. The silhouette could be a cube, a cuboid or a pyramid
like structure. I have created various forms which could be taken as silhouette and it
also helped me to think beyond the ordinary.
Since garments are three dimensional, the silhouette changes as the garment is
viewed in 360 degrees from different angles. It determines people’s first impression
of an outfit, meaning that they look at a garment’s overall shape before examine its
fabric, texture or detail.

TEXTURE
Texture is the surface quality of an object. In
fashion design, the texture is the surface
interest of a fabric, created by the weave and
by light reflection. All the fabric textures
depend on the variations of four factors: fibre
content, yarn structure, fabric structure, and
finishes. All these factors affect the visual,
tactile, and performance quality of a texture. It
can also create the illusionary effect of
narrowness and fullness in the wearer.

COLOR
Colors have always been a key element in women’s clothing and a fundamental consideration
in the design process as they are the very first element to catch shopper’s attention. Colors
are often the starting point of the design process. Color symbolism often varies with
geographical location.
I have studied the various color schemes, that you will see in subsequent pages and I have
created them in corel draw software.

Radiation
Principle of
Radiation is the use of
design lines that fan out
from a pivotal point. Based
upon the sunburst effect,
the eyes move from the
central point of the
sunburst to the outer area
of the design.

Formal balance is symmetrical. Its
design detail are divided equally to
create a centered balance. In other
words, both sides are the same, like
the way how we have two arms and
two legs. A symmetrical garment
design must have exactly the same
details in just the same place on
both sides. Formal balance is the
easiest and the most logical way to
achieve stability.
A sensitive use of fabric, rhythm and
space relationships is essential to
keep a symmetrical design from
being any less exciting . This kind
of design is the simplest and least
expensive to produce.

arrangements on each side.

diagonal line and off
centered closings. Striking
line, texture or colour can
appear to balance is usually
reserved for fashionable
garment for its dramatic and
technical effects. Informal
balance should not look
heavier on one side than the
other. If done properly, the
design should appear to be
balanced.

Repetition
Principle ofCreates Interest
Unity
Movement
Repetition is the repeated use of
certain design elements, details or
trims in a garment. A feature could
be repeated either regularly or
irregularly. This multiple effect
could be used to unify a design.
In fact, repetition is a sense of
movement. Repetition is
necessary in creating interest in a
design and carrying out the
central theme. Repetition in
design can be achieved by the
repetition of shapes, lines and
colours. The dominant line,
shape, colour or detail of a
garment could be repeated
elsewhere with variation. In a
design, a re-occurred shape, line
or detail helps carrying the theme
throughout the whole collection.

Rhythm
In fashion design, rhythm is
the flow of lines, shapes,
textures and colors of
garment. The flow should
gently carry the eyes from
one area of the garment to
another. When all the lines of
an outfit work well together, a
sense of rhythm is followed.
The use of rhythm is
important in achieving
pleasing effects. Rhythm in
design results repeating lines
and masses. These
repetitions can be of uniform
size or of decreasing or
increasing sizes.

Harmony
Harmony is the pleasing
arrangement of all parts of a
garment. It is not the exact
opposite of contrast but it does
imply similarity than differences in
areas such as the use of colors or
textures that blends well with one
another.
Harmony is achieved when
design elements work well
together. Soft fabrics and
rounded forms a better
harmonious design than sharp
cutting or pressed garments.
Fabric pattern, trims, colors, lines,
shapes, texture and proportion all
give a sense that they belong
together.
