Robert Allwood: 12:02 Feb 1, 2006: This is a book about foulards & pareos - history, making your own prints etc
Robert Allwood: 12:04 Feb 1, 2006: This is a list of contents, so disegni is in sense of drawings

various stages of dressing
Explanation:
various stages of dressing for (an event) or dressing as (a certain character).

One of the meanings of "vestizione" is "it vestire, il vestirsi".
The other meanings are cermonies of putting up special clothes:
"cerimonia solenne durante la quale si indossa per la prima volta l'abito religioso."
"cerimonia durante la quale avveniva l'investitura cavalleresca."
www.demauroparavia.it/127161

I am adding here 2 examples of the usage of the phrase "various stages of dressing". Have found them in English websites.
1. They range from early artistic male nudes and semi-nudes, to a documentary style (s/m scenes in progress, or a man in various stages of dressing..."
2. "the work will consist of warrior type images of women in various stages of dressing for a hockey match."

fittings


Explanation:
I think "fasi di vest.." means "prove abito" so I would go with "fittings"

Explanation:

Hi Robert,
I get the impression this might be a fashion show and fasi di vestizione is the models putting on the garments, so you could say something like, “models showing naked flesh before slipping into the flowing creations, then out to be bared again.
Or something like that.
