Apparel designing concerns the art of applying design and aesthetics to clothing and other fabrics. It is influenced by social and cultural attitudes, and varies across time and place. The way a garment is designed is based on ongoing consumer tastes and fashion trends as well as aesthetic appeal and functional use. Most clothing designed for daily wear generally fall within a narrow range of conventional styles, while garments for special occasions such as party dresses and bridal wear can have innovative designs and styles. Apparel designers or fashion designers choose from a wide range of colors, styles, patterns and materials. This textbook offers comprehensive insights into the modern fashion industry and its current trends. It also elucidates the diverse methods and techniques of fine apparel designing. For someone with an interest and eye for detail, it covers some of the most relevant and current information in this domain.

Identity and Resistance in Further Education
<p>In recent years, Further Education has reached a crossroads, with questions being asked about its function, aims and focus, as well as querying the role of the FE teacher, the key aspects of the curriculum and which values should inform FE pedagogy. <i>Identity and Resistance in Further Education </i>explores these questions and effectively conveys the sense of uncertainty that those in the field are experiencing today. </p><p>Connecting Higher Education and FE practitioners and researchers, the book gathers a collection of essays covering a range of topics, including: the journey from student to teacher, critical reflective practice as a way of organising identity, values-based teacher education and policy critique. In keeping with the themes of resistance and creativity, the chapters draw on a wide range of theoretical, as well as literary, perspectives to offer answers. Problematising relationships between the teacher and the institution and the teacher and government, the book argues that the profound challenge to teachers' values and identities finds its response in a critical collegiality. </p><p>This book will be of great interest to academics, researchers and postgraduate students engaged in the study of further education, educational policy and teacher education. It should also be essential reading for practitioners and policymakers.</p>
