Trend book

I am producing a trend book that fits in with our brief ‘Traces’. Using illustrator to create a digital book. The book will contain flat drawings and designs. In a trend book I can use random accessories that match my colour theme. For example head phone. Could use make up, architecture, objects and shaped images. Also vintage and jewellery. Whilst looking through Peclers and their trend books were very detailed with a title page with date and season, an index, the trend/theme mood board explaining where the idea and inspiration came from, colours/prints/Platte, fabric direction with swatches, accessories/shoes and information on trims and fastenings.
Premier vision – fabric forecasting (Paris)
Pure- is an exhibition in London. Buyers would source from here. Lots of boutiques.
Pitti filatti – yarn fair.knit wear. Trend predictions.
The entire above are totally separate from each other.
For images Flickr.com is really good for interesting pictures and is not dodgy you use them!
