Fashion Design
Course Description
Course Description
In Intro to Fashion Design students will learn about Fashion as both an industry as well as an art form in this one semester course . With newly acquired knowledge of marketing and the Design Process, Students will have a first hand account of what it entails to create both 2D and 3D designs from concept to completion. Fashion Illustration and Graphic Design will equip students with a foundation in creative planning, and alternative construction methods to sewing will push students to creatively persevere in expressing themselves. Fashion in the historical and contemporary sphere will be discussed. Students do not need any prior experience in Fashion, nor the Visual Arts.
Semester 1: Fashion Design students will be introduced to Industry fundamentals (marketing, business strategies, Graphic Design) to inform their designing a Fashion Illustration line.
Following their 2D work, students will learn the foundations of fabric manipulation and sewing techniques. As a final "Thesis" investigation, students will be asked to create a Non-Textile garment, a piece of clothing constructed of anything BUT fabric.
Semester 2: For the remainder of the year, students will dive deeper into the construction side of clothing. Pattern making, draping, hand sewing techniques, and finishes will be discussed. Students will be asked to take apart garments and reconstruct them into new designs, as well as create garments out of solely geometric patterns.
*Students are evaluated throughout this course by means of our unit assignment rubrics. Learning for understanding is also demonstrated throughout the studio art-making process, both in class and through our weekly Checkpoints.
