Method of applying Qin embroidery elements in clothing design
To address the issue of the lack of element classification and unclear design processes in contemporary clothing design using Qin embroidery,which is a traditional Chinese embroidery art,a method for incorporating Qin embroidery elements into clothing design was proposed in this paper.Firstly,the external representations and internal imageries of Qin embroidery elements was analyzed and the constituent elements of Qin embroidery patterns were summarized.Secondly,the external representations of Qin embroidery elements were extracted,and the gene libraries of stitching techniques,patterns,and color elements were established;based on the clothing style,the suitable gene elements were selected and integrated into a design language that aligns with modern aesthetics.Thirdly,the external representations of Qin embroidery were classified,including stitching techniques,patterns,and color combinations;and they were integrated into redesigns on the premise of preserving the internal imageries of traditional Qin embroidery,to derive a systematic method of applying the elements of Qin embroidery in clothing design.Finally,the strategies of integrating Qin embroidery elements into modern clothing design in terms of fabric,modeling,and technology were summarized and some guidance and suggestions were put forward for the transformation and development of Qin embroidery in fashion design.
