Step Three STEP THREE: CREATE A TECHNICAL SKETCH OF YOUR GARMENT OR OUTFIT OVERVIEW: Technical sketch Find out what technical sketches are and how to draw them for the garment or outfit you have designed. A template is provided for you to use and create your sketch. TOPIC ONE: Technical sketch Technical sketches, sometimes called working drawings, are drawn outlines of the garments. The garments are not shown on a figure. They are not fashion drawings and they need to be drawn to scale. You will see in the template below the figures are in proportion (not elongated like a fashion template). Use the template below to help draw your technical sketches of your clothing designs to scale you can use drawing software, such as Adobe Illustrator, or you can draw your designs using rulers and French curves with tracing paper on top. Include all design lines and stitching details. A front and back view of the garment needs to be shown. TIP: If using a mobile device you can download the Fashion design flat sketch app to complete this task. Template and further information on technical sketches found at: www.designersnexus.com/fashion-design-portfolio/fashion-design-croquis-template/fashion-templates/ * Technical sketches are only required for Years 11 and 12 students. While they are not required for Years 9 and 10 students, they can be completed to provide further information about the garment or outfit. 20 wool4school.com wool4school@wool.com
