How To Format Your Fashion Lookbook

Lookbook Printing NYC The key to making great clothes is the marriage of quality and design, and lookbooks aren’t any different. To showcase your brand’s unique vision, your lookbook should follow similar fashion rules: professional, streamlined design, and expert printing and production. Follow these suggestions on how to create a fashion lookbook layout, and then consult with the experts at Sheer Print Solutions to choose the right printing strategies to showcase your brand.

Overall Lookbook Design

After you’ve confirmed your text and images, begin creating a hard copy layout of your overall vision. Sketch several sample pages and plan your formatting the old fashioned way—with a paper and pencil. Creating mock-ups on the computer will be even easier if you already have established the general design of your lookbook. When sketching, take into consideration these tips:

Design for your target audience
Take advantage of white space to let the product speak for itself
Position important text on the outside of pages
Keep the style consistent across your lookbook
Brainstorm design ideas that reflect your brand’s overall vision

Lookbook Layout

When deciding how to create a fashion lookbook layout, choose clean, simple layouts to showcase your product. Use a readable font, and be consistent: too many fonts and graphics will overshadow the product.

If you don’t have access to a full version of Photoshop, take advantage of free software like GIMP.org, Photoshop.com, and Inkscape.org. To make printing your lookbook easier, make sure you have it set to CMYK at 300dpi in PDF format, and saved as Press Quality.
