Intro to Technical Fashion Drawing

Hey There!

It’s going to be a sketchy weekend with Omonigho Aito-Imonah who would be taking us on a course on the “Introduction to Technical Fashion drawing”, which is a very fundamental necessity for a designer trying to relay their design blueprint.

One of the essential requirements for creating garments or accessories when going into manufacturing is to provide factories with a “Technical Drawing”. Or often referred to as “Flat Drawing”.

Drawing a complicated style will take a lot of time. However, creating an accurate sketch will serve you well and allow the viewer to immediately understand what information you’re trying to impart.

Whether you are a designer working in the fashion industry who has some ability in fashion sketching or a newcomer with moderate drawing skills. Technical drawing is what you need to communicate your idea better to your team.

• What a Technical Flat is all about.
