5 out of 5 stars Great information!   November 23, 2008
This book has been a pleasant surprise. It included much more information that I was looking for. By using the instructions on fashion illustration I have made progress that I'm happy with. I'm anxious to put more work into my new found skills.


5 out of 5 stars Book is priced right and great info   October 8, 2008
i bought this book based on the reviews for my daughter. they were right on. her work is already improving. she loves this book and is constantly referring to it now. she is excited that it shows body movement, proportions, how to put together a portfolio, the right tools to buy, etc. the price is so reasonable too, especially compared to some of the $50 to $100 books!


5 out of 5 stars Oh, how I wish I had this in school!   June 11, 2008

I wore holes in piles of paper trying to work up to the basic points so magnificently outlined in this book! It's like having an art teacher with you (without the snide remarks) to bring your abilities to the top.

If you are planning on studying fashion, or just doing it for fun, you need this book.

Highly recommended!



4 out of 5 stars Perfect for beginners   May 27, 2008

This book is a great start for beginners who want to work in the fashion industry or for those who consider fashion designing a hobby and want to improve on their illustration skills, like myself. Burke starts with the basics, like learning how to draw the female figure in different poses and drawing some examples of clothes, but she also touches upon fabric rendering and ideas on how to make a presentation. There's even a section on designing for men, childeren, and costumes. Overall a very informative, clear and consise book to get started and to encourage and inspire amateurs to want to learn more.


5 out of 5 stars I like what I see.   March 28, 2008
I haven't really had a chance to play a lot with this book since I got it a month ago, but so far, I like it. There are very colorful designs, croquis', and many illustrations. It seems like it gives a lot of information in a short amount of time.
