Description
Fashion Design I builds the skills and talents required to achieve creative fashion. This class teaches the design fundamentals of the integrated core fashion design curriculum. Students will engage multiple skills to create individual, visionary, unconventional garments, and later, collections. Through a series of projects, students explore form, silhouette, volume, and research in design to arrive at a personal point-of-view in fashion. This course will specifically ask students to work conceptually and to develop research methodologies in their design work. Based on this inquiry, students generate sketches and surface treatments to refine their unique silhouettes and material manipulations. No prerequisite.

Description
Giving woven fabrics and alternative flat materials three-dimensional form is key to many sculptural disciplines, most notably headwear design, and garment and fiber works. Beginning with headwear projects as a prime example of self-supported sculptural form, students proceed through a study of methodologies such as pattern drafting, blocking, draping, and carved-form patterning to develop headwear or other objects suiting their individual practice. Assembly is achieved through hand stitching, machine sewing, or innovative techniques appropriate to specific materials. Visual imagery and texts assist in the development of concepts, and the study of interior and exterior space.

This class is an explorative approach into traditional and non-traditional methods of creating and manipulating surface through texture. Techniques such as knitting, crocheting, stitching and embellishment will provide a language that speaks about shape and form through construction.

Description
This advanced level course examines the transformation of form and identity with the body. Particular emphasis will be placed on challenging the literal definition of garment through various processes such as draping, deconstruction and reuse. Students will explore scale and materials from hard to soft, flexible and rigid. Projects using found objects and alternative resources will also be introduced. Through various assignments, students will be encouraged to expand outside the common solution, using unfamiliar territories, placing them in new context. Several projects are assigned involving individual and group critiques with development of personal direction related to contemporary issues. Parallel development in sculptural practices and design will also be examined to see the emerging context of garment as art.

Description
In this course students immerse themselves in the language of fabrics to express their design concepts in fashion. Students study the origins of a fiber, its use in a yarn, the types of weave, material blends, and fabric finishing all of which result in the distinct characteristics of a material. Students observe how these material conditions determine shape, volume, drape, and flow, and learn the terminology for the professional application. Students study the handling of the fabrics, and stitch sample finishing studies. These material and finishing samples become a personal sample library. This empowers students to discern how to choose or switch fabric to define and push forward their design.
Textile terminology will frame the weekly discourse, as new materials are introduced, studied, explored and handled. Draping exercises lead to deepened studies of the materials as they lend themselves to certain forms. Mills, showrooms, and trade representatives will be invited to workshop with the students. Books referenced in this course are focused on basics of textiles and applications including how to handle fabrics: Fabric for Fashion: The Complete Guide, Second Edition; Laurence King Publishing Fabric for Fashion The Swatch Book, Second Edition ; Laurence King Publishing Sewing For Fashion Designers ; Laurence King Publishing
In addition students will be introduced to trade organizations which provide educational, as well as trend forecast and sustainability information. The Woolmark Company: www.woolmark.com/about/; Cotton Inc.: www.cottoninc.com/about-cotton/; Cotton Works: www.cottonworks.com; NCTO (National Council of Textile Organization): www.ncto.org; Première Vision: www.premierevision.com/en/about
Students will create a fashion fabric and finishings sample and research book, along with a fully executed garment utilizing their discerning study.

Description
In this class students explore the relationship and intersection between fashion and performance from runway to drag and everything in between. How can garment influence or punctuate the performer? Can a fashion presentation transcend editorial and tip over into performance? How is gender performed? When does fashion become spectacle? This course asks students to participate in media consumption, readings, and discussions while responding to the material presented, in the medium of their choice.
Readings and media will vary but students will be exposed to footage, runway presentations, and documentaries on a variety of artists including Leigh Bowery, Divine, and Alexander McQueen, and Cindy Sherman to name a few as well as contemporary performance artists and designers that blur the lines between performance and fashion. Practicing artists and drag queens from around the community and the country will present and workshop with students asking them to challenge their ideas of performance and adornment.
The projects assigned vary from year to year, but always allow for broad medium expression, playfulness, and responsive freedom to the materials being presented.

Description
In this class students learn necessary computer tools to enhance their fashion designs. This class gives students an additional medium to push and refine their designs; additionally, it prepares students for industry work. Students learn on an Adobe platform, which offers in-depth tools for 2D design. Knowledge of the basic Adobe tools enables students to transition into other illustrating platforms they may encounter in the future. Projects include translating hand-drawn designs into computer drawings, creating full designs on the computer, scanning and masking prints, creating prints, creating lay-out, presentation, flat drawing, and more.
