Shape / Silhouette
Insert picture illustrating the
element of line in a garment.
Write a short description of the
photo.
This is a plaid shirt I made for my
husband in the apparel
construction 2 class. This is an
example of silhouette or shape
because the shape of the shirt is
obvious. The shirt has a classic
peter pan collar I think with long
sleeves with pleats at the wrist.
Texture
Insert picture illustrating the
element of line in a garment.
Write a short description of the
photo.
This is a picture of my high school
prom dress. This is an example of
texture because the fabric of the
dress is smooth and silky feeling.
The dress is a ballgown with a
princess line bodice.
