It is full of ideas that will give you hints not only for those who draw or create idols, but also for those who are having trouble designing costumes for their characters.
(The following is an excerpt from the author's "Foreword")
Japanese idol culture is said to have begun in the 1970s.
Not only do they have cute looks, but their unique costumes have also entertained people.
Idol costumes are characterized by an easy-to-understand concept, unlike everyday clothes.
This is done to give an impression to the character or to differentiate them from other idols, but I believe that this method of making costumes is also useful when drawing clothes for other idols. Masu.
When drawing costumes that match the image of the character you want to draw, you need to clarify the concept and carefully craft the texture and decoration.
The idol's costumes are carefully thought out to match the song and the setting of the world. Also, even within the same group, the designs often vary slightly depending on the body shape and character of the members.
I think it can be said that costumes that allow anyone to understand the setting and characters at a glance are necessary for creating a picture that is conveyed.
