You will explore the world of fashion, experiencing the process of designing collections as you create projects reflecting your individual aesthetic. Your instructors will bring their professional experiences into the classroom, covering diverse aspects such as fashion history, textiles, and the business intricacies of this fast-paced and dynamic industry.
You will participate in a wide range of activities, including creating concept boards and color palettes, selecting fabrics and trim, designing mini collections within specific themes, sketching from live models, cutting and sewing original garments, and styling and staging a fashion show.
Your lab fee includes fabric and trims, vintage garments, color swatches, and a field trip to a local thrift store to resource recyclable materials.
