Excerpt from Fashion Drawing and Design: A Practical Manual for Art Students and OthersThe modes may not be those of the very latest moment, but if they were chosen to-day, the fashions sometimes change so rapidly that by the time the book is safely through the printer's hands, much may have altered by Dame Fashion's decree. The aim of the book, however, is not vainly to record of fashions at any particular time, but to explain and illustrate the various methods and styles of drawing in general use for recording dresses of different types, with their manifold detail accessories, and it is hoped that a representative review on these lines has been brought together.So many young people are seeking a career and wish to take up Fashion Drawing, that a book dealing with the subject in all its branches will be, I h0pe, of practical assistance, though nothing can take the place of intensive personal study and practice.There are some classes in connection with Schools of Art, but these are very few, and several have closed down. I do not quite know the reason, but principally, I think, the fashion students are discouraged by the master, who usually affects to despise fashion drawing and tells the students he Wishes them to go in for real art, instead of raising the standard and showing them how much good drawing is essential, and that most of the celebrated artists did not disdain any kind of painting, even the signs of coaching inns.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
