Product Description

Review

'A beautiful book... page after page of colour... it has something for everyone' - The Textile Society Magazine


Product Description

Newly available in paperback, this volume remains unsurpassed as the biggest and most lavish survey of printed textiles ever published. Textile Designs presents a comprehensive selection of the colourful patterned fabrics used for clothing and interior decoration over the last 200 years. Here are the bright and hugely enjoyable materials of everyday life - the printed calicos and cottons, the flowered cretonnes and chintzes, the polka-dot silks and foulards. These are presented by motif and pattern under flye separate headings: Floral, Geometric, Conversational, Ethnic, and Art Movements and Period Styles, and illustrated in nearly 2,000 colour reproductions. Textile Designs is not only indispensable to professionals in the fashion and decoration fields everywhere, but will also be an inspiration to designers in the graphic and visual arts, a reference book for collectors and a delight for aesthetes everywhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars ... eat your heart out!, 6 Dec 2001
This fabulously illustrated book is an absolute must for any student of textile or interior design. Susan Mellor's commentary and editing provides an acute interpretation of the significance of this art-form, ranging from the ancient to modern, decorative to functional, bravura to discrete.
As comprehensive and inspiring a guide to this topic as you could wish for.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful, 20 May 2009
By A. P. S (Yorkshire) - See all my reviews
An amazing, massive resource of designs that would be useful for any design/textile student; anyone working in the industry; or just someone with an interest in design.
Hundreds of patterns, beautifully printed and presented.
