101 Things...

A fellow lovely designer gave me a book titled "101 Things I Learned in Fashion School" and it is simply fantastic. And it is so accurate:

#13 Cotton is a fiber, not a fabric


#14 Satin is a weave, not a fabric


#29 Rules for buttoning a man's jacket
       Two buttons: Always button the top, never button the bottom
       Three buttons: Sometimes button the top, always button the middle, never button the last

#47 Simple clothes aren't simple to design


#55 Two ways to disappoint a design instructor
        Do exactly what the instructor says
        Don't do what the instructor says
