Well was having a good conversation/discussion with a friend earlier.
talking about the role of fashion illustration.
before I say what we thought, id like to pose the questions we had and see if there are better/different answers.
1) is there even a need for an illustration in the 21st century, considering fashion illustration was only prominent when photography and digital media was not existing/favored.
2) should fashion illustration in the 21st century be categorised as a fashion topic or a fine arts skill.
reason why we were discussing this is because of this irony of students in a fashion school being judged on their capability on drawing faces well.
basically what i want to know is do designers use illustration as a way to personally communicate textile/pattern drafting qualities or are these illustrations used to communicate to other people.
