From the Dust Jacket: "While there have been many books on fashion drawing for advertising, this is the first guide to the equally necessary skill of design-drawing for the clothing industry. Patrick John Ireland starts by making clear the difference in aim and so in method between the two kinds of fashion-drawing; one is an aid to selling, the other (with which Mr. Ireland here deals) provides a blue-print from which the design will be made up Mr. Ireland has devised a simple and thorough system which his many students have put into successful practice. This method, here demonstrated with maximum amount of illustrations will prove invaluable both to the working designer and to the student of fashion. Not every designer is a skilled artist. Mr. Ireland shows the techniques and conventions by means of which shortcomings of draughtsmanship may be overcome and the necessary instructions still be clearly conveyed for any particular purpose.".
