Fashionary Menswear Sketchbook A4 (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9789887711155)

The Menswear Sketchbook A4 by Fashionary is tailor-made for fashion designers, combining Fashion + Dictionary + Diary in one comprehensive tool. It is enriched with extensive fashion information and blended figure templates, making it the perfect companion for brainstorming, fast sketching, and quick referencing.

The sketchbook is divided into two main parts to kick-start the creative process. The first part, accounting for 15% of the pages, is a Mini Fashion Dictionary that provides essential professional information, including industry terms and jargon related to stitching, fabric, and methods. This section streamlines fashion development and aids in decision-making by providing quick access to important details. The second part, comprising 85% of the pages, includes Men's Figure Templates. With over 180 figure templates, designers can quickly sketch their ideas and bring them to life, encouraging rapid sketching and brainstorming to make the design process more efficient and productive.

Embodied in the "Less is More" concept, the sketchbook emphasizes minimalistic design and exquisite artistry. It encourages boundless creativity, with a design that speaks to authenticity and artistic excellence.

One of the key features of this sketchbook is its organization-friendly design. Each template is uniform in size and pose, allowing designers to present their ideas and developments in a well-balanced and organized manner. This consistent layout facilitates a clear and chronological presentation of designs, making it easier to view and compare multiple sketches side by side.

The sketchbook's cover is made from water-resistant calico, a fabric familiar to fashion designers. Calico represents ideas, creation, and development, and its natural cottonseeds add a unique touch to each sketchbook. This durable cover ensures that the sketchbook can withstand the rigors of the design journey.

Inside, the A4 sketchbook features bleed-proof 128gsm paper, perfect for markers, watercolor, and color pencils. This high-quality paper allows for color manipulation to create effects like gradients, fabric textures, and lighting effects, enabling designers to achieve their desired saturation and detail.
