The third book from this series on illustration and design focuses on the most popular accessories: shoes, handbags, hats, belts, gloves and glasses. Brilliantly illustrated by Manuela Brambatti, a key member of the Gianni Versace fashion house for nearly thirty years, and co-authored by the designer Fabio Menconi, the book guides readers through the fashion world’s most iconic accessories, and it features practical information and technical advice on how to draw them to achieve a desired result. From creating a basic drawing to using colour, the way in which techniques are presented seeks to encourage readers to try out what they have learned. The publication provides detailed information on how to capture different materials, surfaces and decora- tions―for example, skin, natural fibres, wool and prints―and it includes sections that provide tips on where to look for inspiration. It also offers examples of transformations in designs and reviews the historical development of accessories. In short, this is a comprehensive, structured and systematic volume that will serve professionals, students and anyone who wants to venture into designing and illustrating fashion accessories.

Best-selling author Manuela Brambatti began her career in the fashion world in the late seventies working for Style and other fashion magazines. She has collaborated with Giorgio Correggiari, Krizia and Gian Marco Venturi, but her most important and far-reaching experience is her work with Gianni Versace for thirty years, where she played a crucial role in setting standards with regard to the presentation and illustration of the house’s fashion and home collections. She currently freelances as an illustrator in the fashion, jewellery and design industries.

Fabio Menconi is a senior designer who has worked for renowned fashion houses such as Escada, Armani, Dolce & Gabbana, Versace, Genni. He designs both haute couture as well as accessories. His creations have been worn by celebrities attending the Oscar Academy Awards and other important events.
