When making a portfolio as a Fashion Designer what is the
best way to portray the clothing articles?

Answer Posted / p. chandersekar

Step1
Get something to hold and organize the work. If you are
young and starting out, a binder with page inserts works
well. It may be best to spend the money on a nice large
portfolio or presentation folder .
Step2
Collect samples of your best work, and begin to organize or
group them together by collection. If you have multiple
collections to display, you may include a few samples of
inspiration for the design.
Step3
Include your sketches. These must be large, colored final
sketches of the design. This shows your original intentions
with the design. you must include small preliminary
sketches that show the development of your design.
Step4
Include fabric swatches. These are small pieces of fabric
that show what you would make the designs out of, or what
you intend to make the designs out of to show the texture
or pattern well.
Step5
Include finished photos of the fashion design in your
portfolio . Anything that you actually made should be
photographed while someone is wearing it. The photo should
also be in color and large enough to show detail.
Step6
Put the work in a logical order. Think about the emotions
or feelings that each photo or design evokes when you look
at it. Consider each one and whether they flow in the order
of a sort of story.
Step7
Go digital, make a digital copy burnt to disc. If you apply
to colleges or jobs far away, the only source of contact
may be through email and over phone. Scan all images and
sketches, and creatively place them .
