Washington University in St Louis
Skill is required in pattern making and draping, fashion illustration, as well as in-depth investigation of materials, and a strong presentation is crucial for a successful solution. For those who complete the major of fashion design are allotted a practical experience in the creation of apparel designs suitable for one-of-a-kind or mass production.
Students are able to learn about industry standards and procedures, as well as historical and current fashion trends. Projects become more advanced and challenging as time progresses. Students should expect to develop the skill level capable of designing and presenting coordinated collections by the completion of the fourth semester.
We strongly encourage a broad course of academic pursuit for the successful fashion designer, who will draw upon a wide range of studies, from history to geography to mathematics and biology for their inspiration.
