Fashion & Design Class
Class Experience
Learn about fashion design, the process of designing clothing, and how to make garments from start to finish. Learn about fashion illustration, creating mood boards, a short history of fashion design, research and development, textiles and fabrics, and garment construction.
The value of this course is indescribable. The student will have 30 in-person and 6 virtual classes, 4 open studio dates, access to our instructors for support between classes and so much more. Students will be creating their very own designs from start to finish.
Students will showcase their designs at the end of the course in a group fashion show. Yes, Fashion Show! Students will have the option to model their designs if they choose to, however, if they do not want to we will have volunteer models to show off each student's unique creation. Our goal is to create 2 outfits in total.
