Imagine Fashion Designer World Tour — Nintendo DS
Imagine Fashion Designer World Tour for Nintendo DS: collections, runway presentations and an original one-motif design activity, with full historical coverage.
The play at a glance
A collection with its own visual signature
A purple outfit, a passport and travel imagery fill the retained promotional picture for Imagine Fashion Designer World Tour. The invitation is to give a collection an identity and imagine how it might be presented to an audience, from a runway to a photo shoot.
Design and presentation belong together
ESRB’s description casts the player as a fashion-agency owner building a business. The activities it identifies include designing collections, arranging runway shows and preparing models with cosmetics for photo shoots. Those are several ways to give the same collection a public face.
As a conversation about design, choose a detail that might connect several outfits: a repeated shape, a stripe direction or a small group of colors. Then imagine how that detail would look in a show invitation or a backdrop. A collection can tell a little story through repetition and variation.
The paper activity below welcomes anyone curious about clothes and illustration. It makes room for different occasions and personal choices, with each show card explaining the designer’s own idea.
Try this: one motif, three invitations
Invent a label name and draw a simple motif, such as a moon, a leaf or a curling wave. Use it to connect three outfit drawings.
- Make one outfit for a picnic, one for a concert and one for a rainy-day visit.
- Change the motif’s size or placement in each design. A leaf might become a large pattern, a small pocket detail or the outline of an umbrella.
- Write a two-line show card for each outfit, explaining one color choice and one shape choice.
- Trade cards with a partner and ask them to suggest a setting for the collection’s presentation.
Finish by drawing an invitation that brings the three designs together. For a solo version, write a visitor’s question on the back and answer it as the designer. The aim is a collection you can describe, with room to revise any detail you like.
