Description
[Prerequisite: FIBR/FIBRE 264 or FIBR 320] In this course students will build on basic sewing skills to obtain a technically sound and advanced construction skill set; through acquiring proficiency in draping, custom pattern drafting and sewing techniques. Developing these skills in a series of small collections, students will explore their raw conception abilities and how to produce completely original designs with competitive industry standards and couture finishing. We will cover how inspiration is turned into physical form by focusing on the craft of draping onto the form, creating an original pattern and then sewing an authentic design after following those steps. The goal of this course is for the student to become very familiar with this process and to be able to produce any original idea going forward with advanced construction and finishing.
