Emphasis on dress creates a focal point in a design; it is how we bring attention to what is most important. Emphasis is what catches the eye and makes the viewer stop and look at the image. Communication cannot occur without emphasis and without getting the viewer to look at the image, communication cannot occur. Emphasis can be created by contrast.
