of skill and taste
that make a thing
beautiful.
3. - Clothes are worn to
emphasize the good
points and hide the
defects or imperfection
of our physical trait.
4. Principles of Design
Good outfit should have
proportion, balance, harmony,
emphasis and rhythm to express
art principles
6. 1. Proportion
• In design involves the
relationship of one part to
another. Uneven space
relationships are more
interesting than even ones.
10. In choosing accessories,
proportion should always be
considered.
For example, a woman with
large facial features would not
choose a small bag or a small
hat which will make her feature
even larger, or vice-versa.
11. 2. Balance
•is the feeling of rest
and equilibrium. This
is essential to the total
design of a costume.
12. Kinds of balance
1. Formal or
Symmetrical Balance
•Is achieved when two
sides of a design are
alike on either side of its
vertical center. Balance
in the use of color is
essential for a pleasing
effect.
13. 2. Informal balance
or Asymmetrical
Balance
is achieved by using
space, color, and the
varying importance
of objects to produce
a feeling of rest.
15. 3.
3. Radial Balance
When major parts
of the garment
design radiate
from the central
part of the
garment, creating
a sunburst.
17. 3. Harmony
•is the pleasing
combination of hues,
values, and
intensities.
19. 4. Emphasis
• means that one part of a
design must be more
important than the other
parts. The eye should go
first to this part.
21. 5. Rhythm
• is the movement of the eye
from one part of the design
to other parts. Repetition of
a line or shape is one of the
most common ways of
attaining rhythm.
23. Rhythm could be depicted to:
A. Repetition- Rhythm
could be achieved by
repetition or regular
recurrence of motifs of
design, shapes,
buttons, tucks, pleats,
laces, edgings, color,
textures, fabric
designs etc.
24. b. Progression
- Rhythm is also
created by
progression or by
gradation.
Gradation implies a
gradual increase or
decrease of similar
design elements.
25. c. Transition
Is a fluid
rhythm created
when a curved
line leads the
eye over an
angle
26. d. Radiation
• Rhythm by
radiation
creates a
feeling of
movement in
different
directions.
27. e.
e. Continuous line movement-
This type of rhythm
is obtained by
flowing lines of
trims, bands of
color, fabric designs
etc, which make the
eye move in a
continuous line.

34. 1. Line
• The basic part of any design is
formed by lines
• The eye tends to follow the
direction of the line in a dress
design or in the fabric of the
dress.
37. 2. Form
Refers to the shape of an object as
determined by line.
Silhouette is the term used to describe
form which may repeat, may contrast, or be
transitional
38. 3. Texture
• It appeals strongly to the
sense of touch, whether it is
coarse, fine, smooth, rough,
wrinkled, sleek, glossy,
slippery.
40. Textures as well as lines
can create illusions, one
must choose textures for
clothes that will
harmonize with the over-
all design.
41. A soft wool
will give a
quite different
effect from
the gloss and
sheen of the
satin in the
evening
dress.
43. 4. Shapes
• Clothes reveal or disguise the natural body
contour or shape. Choosing the right
clothing shapes will make the person more
flattering. Wide, full shapes clothes will
make you look larger while trim, compact
dress will make you look smaller.
45. 5. Color
• Is light contains within itself all the sun s
‟
rays, and when it is broken into
wavelengths of light, a sensation is
produced, upon the retina of the eye
46. Use of color in clothes
1. Black, dark tones or deeply grayed colors
tend to make the figure appear smaller or
slimmer than bright or light colors
2. A plain color makes the figure look
slimmer than a combination of contrasting
colors.
47. 3. A very small figure should not wear
over large designs in prints, plaids, or
stripes;
4. Contrast and accent should be done
with care.
