FASHION DESIGN I (4 SCU)

Learning Outcomes:

Upon successful completion of this course, students are expected to be able to: apply appropriate styles in designing daywear outfits; create 2D and 3D designs of various parts of daywear outfits; explore various shapes of parts of daywear outfits relevant to a design theme; identify trends in daywear creations and create a personal daywear collection; apply good time management in the production process of a daywear collection; and arrange and display the work-in-progress of creating a daywear collection in a visual portfolio.

Topics:

This course will introduce students to making a fashion collection. The students will conduct basic research and identify design issues. Then, the students will develop garment ideas and actualize them as a women’s wear/men’s wear mini-collection, as a practical response to an identified issue. Students are encouraged to do textile exploration and experimentation in flat surface treatments, with creative 2D application techniques of silkscreen printing.
