I would like to ask how to apply the zodiac case in fashion design. Can you elaborate on it?

1. Simplify complex things by symbolizing the zodiac.

In clothing design, children's zodiac clothing design patterns can often be seen. From the needs of children's psychology and children's overall image clothing design, it is required to fully reflect the artistry and interest of the design, fully retain and accurately grasp the basic personality characteristics of children's innocence and simplicity, and ensure that the design can be easily accepted and recognized by children. Therefore, clothing design should pay attention to the organic combination of the overall image of the zodiac, the overall lines in clothing geometric design and some important representative zodiac patterns and colors, and the overall image characteristics of the zodiac can be captured through simple geometric figures and lines. The auspicious decorative design of the zodiac, which symbolizes auspiciousness and nature, not only broadens the field of decorative design art, but also fully arouses the public's awareness and concern for promoting the traditional Chinese zodiac pattern culture in China, and also becomes an important connotation that fully embodies the richness of Chinese zodiac culture and traditional culture.

2. The use of symbolization of exaggerated deformation zodiac

When the overall design of a zodiac symbol moves to more levels, it may choose to adopt a simple overall design pattern method, but sometimes it may choose to adopt some exaggerated and deformable overall design pattern methods. Moderate visual exaggeration can not only fully reflect the obvious differences in age characteristics, but also greatly enhance the overall visual beauty and auditory appeal. In modern fashion design, the pattern method of dealing with zodiac symbols should refer to a method that is good at dealing with patterns in a deformed, simple and abstract way. Of course, the graphic features of the zodiac are still obvious. The ingenious combination of simple geometric figures can not only stimulate people's curiosity, but also give people a brand-new image of the zodiac. The key is that this function is easy to identify.

3. The application of symbolization of characters and figures in the Chinese zodiac.

In the costume design of specific zodiac characters, besides the symbolic expression and decorative patterns of specific zodiac characters, it is also very interesting to skillfully combine specific zodiac costume characters with specific zodiac images. For example, Oracle Bone Inscriptions fonts in ancient China may have evolved gradually because there are many pictures or pictographic fonts to make their appearance more vivid, while some Chinese characters with simplified characters, although without any pictures, are highly subjective, and may be more for fully emphasizing the visual effect of the appearance of a graphic font. In the process of making and developing the costume design works of the Chinese zodiac, the costume designers of the Chinese zodiac need to break away from the conventional design form and design on the basis of deeply and systematically understanding the design theory knowledge of the subtle relationship between the traditional Chinese zodiac ornaments and abstract decorative characters in China.

Through the clothing design expression form of the combination of abstract decorative characters and decorative figures of the zodiac, the abstract figures of the zodiac, its image structure diagram and zodiac symbols are displayed intuitively and accurately, and they are integrated into zodiac ornaments, decorative patterns and decorative morphological elements. When applied to zodiac decorative clothing, the decorative characters of the zodiac can be combined with decorative modeling figures of other zodiac characters, so as to highlight the unique side of the zodiac decorative clothing more pertinently and fully meet various functional requirements of personalized decorative design of the zodiac clothing design.
