Description
[Prerequisite: FIBR 264 or FIBR 320] This class focuses on the translation of two-dimensional fabric into three-dimensional forms via flat-pattern drafting and draping. Participants will explore techniques for creating forms to be worn on the body. Projects will include drafting slopers, manipulating basic block patterns, draping on the dress form and translating draped muslins into production patterns. Skills acquired will allow students to create any three-dimensional form sewn from a flat pattern. Fashion sketching will be utilized to design finished products. Sewing skills will be beneficial to success.
