Opis: Developing a Fashion Collection - Colin Renfrew, Elinor Renfrew

Fully updated with new interviews and inspiring images, the 2nd edition of Developing a Fashion Collection covers everything the fashion student needs to know before designing their own collections. Developing a Fashion Collection focuses on the process of designing a collection, and explores different types of research, fabric sourcing, the key roles within a design team and the many sources of inspiration available to designers. Different market levels from ready-to-wear to online shopping are covered in-depth, and are given real-world context through insightful interviews with practising contemporary designers. Collections for niche markets, including knitwear, childrenswear and footwear are also discussed. The 2nd edition of Developing a Fashion Collection features interviews with high-profile international contemporary fashion designers, including Sister by Sibling, Holly Fulton, Todd Lynn, thefuturelaboratory, People Tree, Leutton Postle and Insley & Nash. In the professional world, knowledge of the industry you work in is paramount for success. You need to know every name in this book. -- Todd Lynn, Fashion Designer Insight into real industry-based fashion practice is valuable knowledge that cannot be taught to students in a theoretical way. The first-hand insight into designers' working methods presented in this book - from conceptual research to producing a marketable collection - makes Developing a Fashion Collection a valuable practical tool for recent graduates and emerging designers embarking on their own careers. -- Jens Laugesen, Masters Design Tutor, Ecole de la Couture Parisienne, FranceIntroduction Chapter 1: What is a collection?; How to start a collection; Market research; Inspiration; Development; Fabric sourcing; Forecasting trends; Archiving; Editing collections; The team; Showing the collections Interviews for chapter 1; Martin Raymond; Shelley Fox; Holly Fulton; Todd Lynn; Richard Nicoll; Felipe Rojas Llanos Chapter 2: Collections and their influences; Background; Historical; Cultural; Conceptual; Functional; Political; Futuristic; Artistic Interviews for chapter 2; Fiona Stuart; Louis Amendola; Dr Noki; Katie Greenyer; Sophie Hulme; Kenneth Mackenzie; Will Broome Chapter 3: Designing for different markets; Haute couture; Ready to wear; Designer labels; Luxury brands; Designer collaborations; High street; Developing high street collections; On-line shopping Interviews for chapter 3; Giles Deacon; Sibling; Colin McNair; Gordon Richardson; John Mooney Chapter 4: Specialist collections; Childrenswear; Knitwear; Active sportswear; Corporate wear; Footwear; Bags and accessories Interviews for chapter 4; Eva Karayiannis (Caramel); Jenny Leutton (Leutton Postle); Charli Cohen; Tracy Mulligan; Nicholas Kirkwood; Oliver Ruuger Chapter 5: The student collection; The brief; Your portfolio; Research and development; Presentation Conclusion Glossary Featured designers Shops and markets Suppliers Fashion weeks, trade shows and fabric fairs Fashion journals, museums and blogs Acknowledgements and picture credits
