This document discusses elements of design related to shape, form, and texture. It defines shape and silhouette, and identifies four basic garment shapes - natural, tubular, bell, and full. Form is described as having two meanings - the 3D volume or structure of clothing, and the human body itself. Texture is defined as the visual or tactile feel of a surface, and is determined by factors like fiber, yarn, construction and finish. Pattern is discussed as stripes, plaids and other motifs that can vary in size, color, and spacing. The document concludes with suggestions for a portfolio assignment involving analyzing and illustrating textures, shapes, forms and how they relate to different body types.
