About the course
About the course
I think of this ONLINE course as the Logistics of Fashion, from concept to consumer, how and why fashion goes from being an idea, ending up in a person's closet. This course covers the factors and concepts that affect fashion development, design, apparel production, marketing, distribution, retail merchandising, promotion and the consumer. Understanding nomenclature and forms of communication specific to the fashion industry. In this course, we also survey of career opportunities in the apparel industry.

To get through the 1st week:
Search the web, and you will probably find the first chapter is available for free online, to get you through the first week, while you wait for access to your own copy of the text. It is not enough to get you through the whole class but, before the start of the semester, most of the first chapter could be previewed on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Fashion-Studio-Instant-Access/dp/1501310755
OLDER EDITIONS
It is up to the individual to decide if they feel up to putting forth the extra effort that it takes to navigate the differences between the newer and older editions. Make arrangements to get regular access to the newer edition in order to reconcile the differences and to obtain any missing information.
Fash002 SCHEDULE (approximate)
Fash002 SCHEDULE (approximate)
This course is completely ONLINE
There are NO in person meetings, and no required synchronous online meetings.
Average Weekly schedule - Work is due by 11:00 pm on Sundays
Read Chapter For each chapter, complete chapter quiz, assignment & discussion each week
Projects Complete 1 task each project each week to keep on track
Hot Topic (x3) Summarize article from industry trade publications
Midterm Chapters 1-7, multiple choice/TF/Matching - like weekly chapter quizzes, more questions
Final Covers chapters 8-12, similar format to midterm
This is the average routine for all 6 weeks. A "project" is just an assignment that is not due the same week it is introduced, giving a little more time to go in a little more depth. One "project" involves researching a store, the next "project" builds on the first part, where, given what you know about the store, you identify an opportunity that store should take advantage of. The last project involves researching a career in the fashion industry.
