How To Create Space For Clothing Design?

　　 clothing No matter as a product or a piece of art, it is ultimately embodied in the concrete material form. The art of costume design also has the characteristics of space art. It is also a "space soft sculpture" made up of different materials and various structural forms. It is shown in the coordination of the objective factors such as the clothing environment and lighting rays through the close cooperation with the human body.

Shaping the three-dimensional space of clothing design

Clothing is a state after people dress. People are three-dimensional. clothing It is also the actual occupying space and three-dimensional. When people are looking at clothing styles, colors and fabrics, they tend to neglect the importance of three-dimensional space. The three-dimensional space includes the space between the human body and the clothing, the movement space and the static space. It will directly affect the function and shape of the garment, and how to shape the ideal space between the clothing and the human body, the moving space and the static space, is a topic worthy of study for the clothing designer.

Human body and clothing three-dimensional space

A good dress Design Works can not be separated from the human body, the reason why the auxiliary clothing appearance is attractive, because it very well set off the beauty of the human body. Understanding the relationship between the human body and the three-dimensional space of clothing is the precondition for garment design.

The gap between the human body and the clothing determines the shape of the three-dimensional space of the garment. Usually, designers call this gap the amount of relaxation. The understanding of relaxation and the handling of relaxation affect the shape of clothing three-dimensional space. From the perspective of clothing design, there are three states of relaxation between the human body and the garment. The first is zero relaxation, and clothing and human body are always left behind, such as underwear. The second is negative relaxation. Clothing cuts into the human body. Swimming suit Tight clothing and so on. The third is positive relaxation, and clothing leaves the body surface, such as loose fitting clothing.

Designers should take into account the following aspects in setting the relaxation of clothing: (1) relaxation of clothing patterns, (2) the amount of relaxation required for movements, (3) physiological relaxation in clothing, and (4) the amount of sensory relaxation, such as dressing impressions, (5) physical relaxation of materials, (6) physical relaxation, such as volume and nature of the gap, (7) relaxation of skin structures such as skin elongation and slippage. The amount of relaxation determines the space between clothing and human body. From another angle, the amount of relaxation is small. Clothing is close to the human body, which helps to express the beauty of human body. Dress beauty 。

In order to better reflect the three-dimensional effect of clothing, modern people can beautify themselves by fitting the body more physically and scientifically. For example, by using various linings to make the chest bulge and plump, make the surface of the garment smooth and hem straight; use shoulder pads to make the shoulders full and symmetrical; use the lining to limit the elongation of the clothes and reduce the clothing. Pleats And wrinkle, so that clothing can get good shape retention. The purpose is to make the garment three-dimensional space more perfect.

Motion space and rest space

People will have two states of relative quiescence and movement in daily life, and they will form relative space and static space of clothing. Moving space and static space are two aspects of clothing three-dimensional space.

Clothing modeling with human body motion The space of clothing movement will show the beauty of motion space, that is, dynamic beauty. Clothing with dynamic beauty, such as dance costumes. The reason why skating clothing is circular is that the skater skates around the ice field and the skirt has centrifugal force outward from the body when it rotates. In addition to daily life, with the movements of the human body walking, jumping, limbs flexion and extension, torsional movements of the torso and other rhythmic movements, there is also the movement of the moving parts such as elegant, swaying and contracting of the garment parts. There is also the function of the wind. When the scarves, veils, sleeves and the large skirts are swaying with the wind, there will be a dynamic beauty movement space. In addition, we should consider the space modeling of the detached parts, and adopt light, thin, floating and soft dynamic materials.

Relative to the movement of the human body (walking, jumping, etc.), such as standing, sitting and waiting is a relatively static state. The garment modeling will show relatively static space with the static state of the human body. For garment designers, the stereoscopic aesthetic concept should also be taken into consideration in shaping the relative static space of clothing, showing that the beauty of static space is static beauty. Men's Ceremonial dress Social dress is usually worn on specific occasions. We should give full consideration to the relationship between people and environment and space, so that the sculpt space can be molded to convey the elegant, generous and polite image of the wearer.

In shaping the three-dimensional space of clothing design, we should treat the relationship between the two correctly. We should not only consider the space formed by the clothing movement, but neglect the static state space of the garment, and we should not only pay attention to the static state space of the garment, but neglect the space of the clothing movement state.

clothing Design Shaping of thinking space

After entering the twenty-first Century, the sexy appeal of clothing performance has become a high grade and high standard, not only reflected in the naked degree of fashion to the human skin, but also reflected in the body language and wearing style of the wearer, which is reflected in the cultural taste and way of thinking of the wearer.

The shaping of the thinking space of fashion design is inseparable from the inspiration of sister art.

Just like architecture, literature, music, painting and sculpture. clothing It is a form of art that arises from specific cultural conditions, reflecting the needs and Inspiration of the society that created it. Throughout the history of European art, every era has an artistic trend reflecting its spirit of the times. To a certain extent, the artistic trend of thought affects the fashion style of the period. Fashion in costumes for nearly 150 years reflects different forms of artistic thought in neoclassicism, romanticism and abstract art. Throughout the history of splendid costumes, modern painting masters Matisse, Picasso, Mondriaan, Daly and other people's painting ideas and techniques have been shown by many fashion designers in fashion design. The theme of "Mengcheng Ann" launched by the contemporary fashion Prince Yves Saint Laurent in 1965 is a solemn single straight line integrated with the graceful female figure. It fully shows the cool beauty of the abstract artists. And in 1979 he took Picasso's painting spirit as another inspiration for his works. With Picasso's painting as a costume design and a simple modern modeling line, the whole design has rich artistic flavor and rich cultural details. These works are recognized as the fine works of the century.

It is decided by the feeling that the structural modeling of clothing is made into paper patterns and sewing garments. This is not enough for professional fashion design. An excellent garment design must be organically combined with the three-dimensional space form of clothing design and the space consciousness of clothing design, so that the real combination of human and clothing can be integrated perfectly.
