Introduction to fashion design or equivalent
|
Using the Italian fashion industry as a model, students are introduced to the different workings and interrelationships of various industries and services that compose the fashion business. From textiles design and accessories to haut-couture and prêt-a-porter, students explore the many aspects of the Italian fashion industry. Visits to design studios, fashion exhibits and textile factories introduce students to the industry first hand. The course looks at how trends are evaluated, fabrics are selected and final products find their way from the drawing board to the runway and clothing racks.
