Book Description

Drawing Fashion Accessories is a practical guide to illustrating footwear, millinery, bags and purses, cosmetic products, and jewelry, offering a unique resource for students and professional fashion illustrators alike.

Beginning with a discussion of the media available for drawing fashion accessories and how best to use them, together with a demonstration of various art styles, Miller then moves on to demonstrate the technicalities of drawing different products, including the specific challenges of perspective, how to draw accessories on the body, and how to render a wealth of different materials. In addition to the practice of drawing, a series of illustrated glossaries introduces readers to the technical and style terminology used throughout the accessories industry.
