Why aren’t there more examples out on the web?
While many items are being posted to the web as archives, you will not find this occurring with fashion folios. So many artists are evolved that securing the rights to publish these designs have grown quite complicated.
Not all artists will allow their works to be distributed online for the whole world to view and copy. Basically, the web makes it a lot easier to rip off designs. So those who work (or plan to work) professionally in design and art fields as well as those who have had works appropriated, may sometimes chose not to allow web publication.
There are currently no live public links to any of the Folio Books. We’ve got just a few samples over in our Showcase.
If you are interesting in a specific show, often past copies of a convention’s folio may be purchased directly from the organization that ran the contest. If you can’t find a link to a group here, try Costume-ConNections at www.Costume-Con.org to find contact links.
