Fashion illustration is deeply intertwined with textile science. Designers must understand the physical and chemical properties of fibers to accurately illustrate how a fabric will react to light and shadow. At OHTS, students take these illustrations and move into pattern drafting and garment construction, ensuring that their creative visions are grounded in technical reality.
