Designer Julian Roberts gives lectures and workshops on a technique that he himself has developed, called ‘subtraction cutting’.
The method consists of creating shapes by removing rather than adding fabric. Through the subtraction of fabric, holes are created for the body of the person who wears the clothes, determining the way the textile is draped around the body.
How all of this works and how you can have a go at the technique yourself is explained in the book that you can download for free from the website.
