I'm in Shape!

I once encountered a funny statement shirt worn by a chubby guy. Printed in front was the phrase "I am in shape!"; on the back it said "CIRCLE is a shape". I have to give it to the guy he had a clever way of interpreting what is "in shape". I can't help but remember this during last week's discussion about the importance of line and shape interpretation. I sincerely appreciate learning about these design elements, principles, and foundation because it makes any design clearer and sensible.

I believe mastering these specific design lessons would prove to be advantageous to aspiring clothing technologist, like myself, because we can incorporate it in our design in such a way that it serves the different needs of our consumers specifically their body form. For instance a petite woman would like to appear more slender or taller, manipulation of lines in her clothing can help cater to that need.
