The Art of Dress is a coloring book for creative fashion enthusiasts of all ages who enjoy fashion illustration. The book is a collection of 22 original pencil drawings—dress and evening gown illustrations inspired by the traditions of Haute Couture. The idea for the coloring book "The Art of Dress" was born while creating the "Haute Couture Fashion Illustration Resource Book," a book for professional dress designers. All drawings in this book are professional couture design illustrations. All artworks in the book are in two color tones: the tone of the original pencil drawing and a light grey tone (for creative editing or to try different color rendering). The paper in the book is for dry media such as pencils, crayons, sketching sticks, and pastel and is not suitable for watercolor. If you are planning to use markers or gel pens, place extra sheets of paper under the book you are coloring page to prevent ink from bleeding through the page and avoid marks or grooves underneath the coloring page. "Test pages" at the end of the book are for trying out art media before coloring.
