Recommended Prior Learning

In this course, students will explore advanced procedures for garment construction and apply them practically.  The students will then generate design ideas, drawing inspiration from various sources, including historical fashion trends, cultural influences, contemporary art, nature, and technology. The course emphasizes visual communication skills to develop design ideas that address specific technological challenges outlined in a given brief. The exploration of diverse themes and concepts will encourage them to think outside the square and push the boundaries of traditional design aesthetics. 



Future Possibilities
