object or area, sometimes called a silhouette.There are different
types of shape as in the fig. below
3. PROPORTION : Proportion is simply the pleasing interrelation-
ship of the sizes of all parts of the garments. Standards of proportion
change with fashion cycle with an evolution in silhouette & line. The
length & size of design features within the silhouettes should
compliment the whole.

color to maintain a feeling of attraction. Balance is divided in two types

design on both the side. It is known as formal balance.

varying elements & spaces on both the side. It is also known as informal
balance.
6. UNITY : All elements of a design work together to produce a
successful visual effect.The sense that all of the parts are working
together to achieve a common result; a harmony of all the parts and at
the end to form a successful design.

eye moves from one feature on the body to another with the use of

pattern. There are different types of rhythm as follows-
