As someone who dyes natural fabrics, I can attest to the fact that you gotta sometimes disregard the labels that some companies use. In fabric dyeing you basically have 3 warm primaries, and you have 3 cool primaries, and companies are always changing the names (as if it wasn't bad enough). You can really have some fun exploring this with fabric dye. With those 6 colors, you can theoretically make any color.

Best fabric dye(s) in your opinion? I’m interested in learning about dying fabric

Color theory is a real life application of the saying, "You have to know the rules in order to effectively bend them to your advantage."

Complement with an e is when two hues "complete" the presence of all three primary hues in the pair. Red and green (blue+yellow). Yellow and violet (red+blue). Blue and orange (red+yellow). Comple-ment / Comple-te . . . Very much enjoy all your videos. Thanks!

"Understanding colour theory will save you trial and error." This was the crucial thing our high school art teacher failed to mention. Thank you.

I gotta say, this video is a pleasant surprise for my Sunday morning. I thought since there was 35% vote on color theory request, you wouldn’t make one. I am glad I was wrong!! Thank you, Miss Zoe! ❤

No, that poll was for Patreon.

Thanks Zoe! This is amazing knowledge. I'm a self-learning fashion designer and I'm treasuring this knowledge. The mood board idea from different eras was so enlightening. Please never stop making videos. Huge thanks!

Hi Zoe! Just wanted to say thank you so much for all that you do. I’ve made it a thing to watch you at least 30 min per day and take notes 📝 I am in the film wardrobe/ Costuming industry and you have helped me tremendously!! Your videos are straight forward, informative and easy to watch. So grateful for you 🤍

Zoe your channel is a wealth of information, I didn't know the rules of gray/grey until now.

Love your color theory videos. Takes me back to film school.

You’re an incredible teacher! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Thank you! Such a great explanation of color undertones.

Regarding the color-story that you've created, great choices and I love the green so much! Maybe go all in and set a rule for the green being specific for certain fabrics only, really falling in love with that beautiful emerald color in the top-center image. Vivid greens are so opulent

What you teach, is usually what is taught in very expensive and sometimes useless courses. Ty so much!💗

I learned so much! “Complement” with an ‘e.’ Very interesting and I love the pace and timbre of your voice, Zoe.

This was super easy to understand, and I liked how you explained picking the colors for your collection from the inspo pics

Hello, Zoe, my name is Ryan Carignan and I am a 24-year-old prospective fashion student. I am currently watching your Fashion Design Process Video Course and it is stellar! I never knew that in the initial phases of design you should take inspiration not from clothing but through the world around you. I had no idea that colour theory and mood boards were essential elements to create a collection. I look forward to continuing to watch your video course and being inspired by your knowledge and expertise. Take care, Ryan

Great video I struggle with some of the color theory as I’m partially color blind, this was very helpful.

As a graphic designer for 20 + years with a vision in the hemp and sustainable realm, I really enjoyed your fun take on colour. TY

This is great, so informative. Thank you!

Glad you are covering this topic, I always learn so much from your videos

I've honestly never studied color theory and this teaching opened my eyes WIDE to how important it is in the creation process, especially since I've recently started using watercolor as my go to medium for illustrating my fashion art.... Now I'm going to seriously apply this to my swatching! As always I'm so grateful for your extravagant and generous teaching style and willingness to share very useful information 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Thank you, that was incredibly informative! Could you maybe include some negative examples in future videos? Like, what colors definitely don't work together. Cause now I feel like every color is in some way working with other, and so I lose the meaning behind main harmonious triangles...

Hello, zoe!! Did you watch the Korean series " the fabulous "? It's a fashioned themed series also about friendship and love. It shows the life of a fashion designer, model, photographer, and like a person working in fashion. I just wanna know if those what I have seen in the series is somehow similar to what happens in real life ? Cause I really want to be a fashion designer and model at the same time. BTW love the clothes and garments on the show. ❤❤

I didn't. I don't like watching fictional shows where the main character works in the fashion industry because I just spend the whole time picking through all the mistakes instead of enjoying the story. hahaha

Very informative video! I wonder tho so are hues the same with undertones ?

What is the paper you used when you draw with marker? Thank so much Chi

@zoehongteaches

marker paper. my fav brand is bienfang but you have to draw on the back of the paper.

In terms of dyeing white (or near-white) fabric, is low dye saturation considered a 'tint', even though no white is being added? In other words, does low dye saturation work the same way as a tint in painting terms, or does it function differently? I assume that watercolor painters must have language for this kind of saturation, but I've never heard it mentioned separately, so I'm assuming the white base color is just considered almost a part of the mix. Edit: I hope I am asking this coherently.

@zoehongteaches

Жыл бұрын

Low dye saturation? I'm assuming you're talking about less dye and more water? And in watercolor painting, less paint and more water. That is like a tint, as the water replaces the white.
