If paper-cutting is applied to fashion design, what artistic value will it have? With the development of society and the accelerated pace of life, people are more eager to get close to nature and primitive and simple traditional culture. To inherit and carry forward the tradition, we should pay attention to the new artistic environment and market competition. The application of paper-cut elements in fashion design is not only conducive to promoting traditional paper-cut art, but also conducive to bringing oriental charm to the forefront of fashion.

1. Artistic value

Paper-cutting is an important carrier of people's folk culture, and its modeling is expressive. In decoration, paper-cut patterns can be used alone or in combination with other patterns. According to the social fashion trend, choosing appropriate elements for clothing design can not only show the folk tradition contained in paper-cutting art, but also enhance the expressive force of design and highlight the aesthetic value of visual image.

Under the background of globalization, China's traditional clothing elements, such as cheongsam, belt buckle, dragon pattern and Miao Xiu, have begun to be favored by foreign designers and applied in their own design works. The participation of traditional culture in future design is indispensable. The mainstream aesthetics of society is constantly changing. Nowadays, consumers may pay more attention to the cultural conformity and brand value behind the goods rather than the practicality of the products. Under the guidance of brand effect, both clothing and other commodities should be adjusted in time, and design innovation should be carried out with reference to the concept of modeling and color in art. Paper-cutting art is the crystallization of people's folk culture, which embodies people's ideas and concepts, while retaining the ancient modeling patterns of the Chinese nation. Adding paper-cut elements to clothing design can not only publicize the traditional culture of the Chinese nation, but also show the artistic value of clothing.

China's traditional artistic spirit pays attention to the beauty of artistic conception, but most folk paper-cutting craftsmen have mastered the "skills" of paper-cutting, but they have not reached the realm of "art" and do not understand the aesthetic category of "meaning comes from heart". Paper-cutting mostly shows the image in the artist's mind, and reconstructs the visual image according to his own imagination. Some paper-cuts have a certain distance from the prototype, which is the artist's abstract understanding of the image of paper-cuts according to his own imagination. Just like this, paper-cut artists express the creative process of their images, which makes their works more artistic. The simplicity of the paper-cut art creation tools and the exquisiteness of the works design precisely reflect the category of "technical beauty" in China's traditional creative spirit, and also coincide with the concept of fashion design. Drawing lessons from decorative patterns, shapes, colors, textures and other elements in paper-cutting art and applying them to clothing design can enhance the aesthetic meaning of clothing design.

2. Market value

With the same practicality, people will pay more attention to the design sense and brand cultural value of goods. At present, there has been a wave of fashion at home and abroad, which is deeply loved by consumers. These trendy brands design their clothes according to the brand logo or a series of patterns designed by their own brands, thus forming their own unique brand symbols. Clothing production is also designed around its own brand symbols, and even some brands directly print famous paintings in the history of Chinese and Western art on their clothes as patterns. This practice has obviously been recognized by consumers, who wear famous paintings on their bodies and think that this is a culture and a trend. Retro trend and national style have risen, and the artistic symbols contained in paper-cut patterns only belong to China traditional culture should also seize this opportunity. In addition, the profound cultural connotation of paper-cut art can play a certain propaganda role for clothing design and enhance the added value of clothing.

What is the application method of paper-cut art in fashion design? Can you elaborate on it? Direct use of 1. mode

First of all, we can directly apply all or part of paper-cut patterns to clothing design. On the basis of grasping the cultural connotation and color significance of paper-cutting, consider the placement of position or the coordination of overall color. For local application, we can consider using paper-cut patterns to decorate the collar, sleeves and hem, which can strengthen the outline of the clothing and reflect the characteristics of the clothing. The decorative patterns on the chest and back are intuitive and can produce stronger visual effects. For example, T-shirts, the design of patterns is the biggest selling point, and the types of patterns involve all aspects. Brand symbols, landscapes, figures and paintings are the themes of clothing patterns. The application of representative elements such as bun dolls and tree of life in paper-cut patterns to clothing design can enhance the overall aesthetic feeling of design.

2. Indirect use of patterns

The image in paper-cutting may have a certain gap with modern mainstream aesthetics. When drawing lessons from paper-cut elements, we should first deal with the pattern, and refine or reconstruct the concepts or information contained in the pattern by means of extraction, reconstruction and abstraction, so as to determine the artistic language that conforms to the modern mainstream aesthetics.

Refining is to simplify paper-cut modeling, selectively retain parts and extract elements suitable for clothing design.

Reconstruction is to disassemble and recombine the elements in the pattern to form a new image. This not only retains the traditional patterns in the paper-cut elements, but also breaks the traditional thinking and visual habits, creating an image that is more in line with modern mainstream aesthetics.

Abstract, that is, using geometric deformation to deal with paper-cut patterns, exaggerating and deforming the patterns, rearranging and combining them to form a new image. The mainstream of modern design is more inclined to simple and bright patterns, which are not only plastic, but also can be combined with other images. Extracting a simple and abstract image from the figuration of paper-cut elements is more in line with mainstream aesthetics. Folk paper-cut is widely distributed and has strong regional characteristics. We can choose suitable themes for fashion design and combine innovation with design.

With the rise of retro trend, more and more brands have grasped the elements of traditional culture. For example, Li Ning has achieved the combination of sports trends and traditional culture, as well as the brand's keen insight into the consumer market and cultural environment, which makes Li Ning stand out among a series of domestic sports brands and become the first choice in the hearts of consumers. In 2020, Li Ning and Dunhuang Museum held a show in the desert, which set off a trend in the fashion world. This kind of communication between culture and historical tradition is exactly the cultural identity and sense of belonging that people are looking for. In this activity, a series of items jointly signed by Dunhuang Museum were launched. Designers present the beauty of Dunhuang and the cultural heritage of the Silk Road in the design of clothing and sports shoes, which are loved by young consumers.

The combination of design and tradition, the combination of modern design trend elements and traditional artistic style not only carries forward the tradition, but also brings creative inspiration to modern design. Lv Dandan, a fashion designer, has added many elements of China traditional culture to her works. The use of various grass patterns and dragon patterns makes her design more elegant and oriental. The design of "China Baby", a gold medal work in the 14th Dalian Cup, draws lessons from the elements of paper-cutting, and directly applies the unique image of a doll catching buns in paper-cutting art to children's wear design. The works have both national characteristics and childlike interest, realizing the combination of practicality and artistic beauty.
