Pattern Cutting Deconstructed: Wearable Art - Monisola Omotoso

First in a series of creative pattern cutting books at the intersection of art and fashion. Shape, form, colour and line are the visual language of abstract art and the inspiration for the designs in this creative pattern cutting book. Taking paintings by influential international artists from the early 20th century to the current day - from Matisse to Turner Prize winner Lubaina Himid - as her starting point, fashion designer and educator Monisola Omotoso offers an exciting alternative approach to developing patterns and draping on the dress form. Just as abstract art transforms reality, abstract art can be transformed into real, wearable fashion pieces.Each project begins with a work of art and a short text about the artist. The author then guides the reader through an illustrated step-by-step description of the pattern drafting and draping process of creating a garment inspired by the art. About the Author Besides founding her company Pattern Cutting Deconstructed (www.patterncuttingdeconstructed.com and @patterncuttingdeconstructed), Monisola Omotoso, has taught at numerous institutions including the Royal College of Art and Central Saint Martins. She has collaborated with and held workshops at the V&A, designed for wide range of brands (from Alexander McQueen to Birdsong) and launched a course with Domestika.
