We love its texture, its smell, its covers filled with magic and especially the wonderful relationship that books provide with the knowledge and imagination. With regard to the recent world celebration of the Book Day, we want to share with our fans the fashion books we love the most, which form a valuable part of our professional and personal library.Choosing a book about fashion is a complex situation. There is a great variety of theme, visual references and content, whereby we must be clear about what exactly we want to know in order to choose those booksthat approach more to the topic we are looking for.
Within the world of fashion, books usually revolve around six core themes: - Fashion Illustration Books - Books about Creative Process and Fashion Operation - Books of Fashion History - Books about Fashion Styling and Image Consulting - Books of wide range of topics about Fashion (marketing, entrepreneurship, catwalk organization, fashion sociology, etc.). - Biography Books about great characters of the Fashion worldWith fashion books it happens as with clothes: we don´t need to have thousands and we don´t have to have all subject areas. The important thing is to have those which are closest to our interests, and gradually expand them, to go have at least one from each area. Remember that these books have a great visual beauty, in addition to allow us discover much about the fashion industry practice, which will help us to understand its operation and will be a delight for the senses. Some of the favorite fashion books of AF Moda are: (Note:the books whose title appears in Spanish and in English is because we don´t know any English edition of the same. We believe they are only available in Spanish. Also consider that covers may change in the english editions of the books.)FASHION ILLUSTRATION BOOKS: These books go more or less the same line, providing concepts, techniques and fundamentals to draw figures for fashion, fabrics and prints in general.
