Aimed at fashion designers, Fabric for Fashion: The Complete Guide is unique in explaining the behavior, properties and sustainability impacts of a wide range of natural and man-made fabrics.

This book offers guidance by providing a mix of practical information, including industry vocabulary, and a wealth of stunning visual examples showing how designers, both past and present, have worked with textiles. Highlights of this new edition include additional chapters on:
