Professional Fashion Journal:
Each week the fashion students develop a page in their Professional Fashion Journals which includes an inspiration page, fabric swatches, fashion accessories and a 9-Head, hand-sketched Croquis that is produced in full color. The assignment provides the fashion student an opportunity to build confidence in their design concepts, improve their hand-sketching skills, and create fashion outfits using the latest trends from fashion industry. The Professional Fashion Journal activity also encourages the fashion students to start thinking about their own design label. Expressed best by D’Nae Shipp, a third year fashion student: "Sketching allows me the opportunity to bring my drawing to life. While sketching and constructing the fashion outfit, I learn that different design concepts will create a different style. Sketching allows me to customize a look which becomes my own personal style even before it becomes a reality." |
