A short guide to comparing a print subject, a garment colour and where the print sits.
Veltrix / Ink and garment contrast
The Veltrix guide / choosing a design
Look at a print from the distance at which another person would normally see it. Large shapes can communicate immediately, while fine line work rewards a closer view. Neither is automatically better: decide whether the graphic should be the focus of the outfit or a quieter detail. Use the colour tool to compare the relationship between ink and garment.
Think about the neckline, sleeve length and layers you usually wear. A jacket can cover a back graphic; an open overshirt frames a chest print. Check both the composition and the space around it. When asking about a study, name the graphic, the garment colour and the position rather than relying on a screenshot alone.
