  • Principles of Design
    Principles of Design Balance Proportion/Scale Emphasis Rhythm Introduction The principles of design are essential to the development and production of clothing used by individuals and families around the world. Each principle has a specific role in creating an aesthetically pleasing garment or ensemble. The principles of design consist of: balance, proportion (also referred to as scale), emphasis, and rhythm. When a garment or ensemble uses the elements and principles of design to create a visual unity, harmony is achieved. Garments often integrate more than one principle, while drawing from the elements of design to create a cohesive look. The following discussion will present background information on each of the principles of design and applications to clothing design and construction. Balance According to Wolfe (2011) balance implies that there is an equilibrium or uniformity among the parts of a design (p. 205). To achieve balance, a garment or ensemble should have equal visual weight throughout the design. The use of structural features, added embellishments, or decorations to a garment contribute to the appearance of a garment or ensemble being balanced or not. A clothing designer can utilize surface designs on fabric to construct a garment creating visual balance. Further, color, line, and texture can impact the balance of a design. For example, cool and light colors have less visual weight than dark, warm colors. If an individual is wearing a small amount of a dark, warm color it can be balanced out with a larger amount of cool, light colors. Balance used in clothing design can be categorized into two groups: Formal and Informal Balance.

  • The Dress Code for Women at Shanti Bhavan, Like Many
    The dress code for women at Shanti Bhavan, like many places throughout rural South India is relatively conservative: absolutely no shoulders, no cleavage, looser clothing (ie. no leggings and no tight tops) and nothing above the knees. Female Teachers’ Typical Clothing Many professional women wear kurtas, or long dresses with high slits at the sides which are paired with leggings or pants. Kurtas are also often worn with scarves that are draped across the shoulders as a display of modesty. This article of clothing is often worn by teachers, as it is often considered to be casual yet appropriate in the workspace. One important thing to note is that men also wear kurtas in India: in fact, traditionally women would wear the female version called kurtis while men wore kurtas. However, the term kurta is often used for the clothing article that both men and women wear. Volunteers and teachers are often recommended to wear kurtas while at the school—although wearing a kurta is not compulsory. In lieu of wearing kurtas, typically business-casual styles of dress (as long as they adhere to the rules of no exposed shoulders, cleavage, or knees) is acceptable. You will often see volunteers wearing trousers with a blouse, or long skirts paired with both a blouse and scarf. This is an example of a kurta, notice the high slit at the sides (often seen in kurtas) Aunties and Female Maintenance Workers’ Typical Clothing The aunties, who are the caretakers of the children, often wear traditional clothes, whether they wear kurtas or saris (a cropped blouse that often stops underneath the bustline and is paired with a nine-yard long fabric which is wrapped around the lower part of the body and draped over one shoulder).
