About
This lab course introduces students to Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop as they are used in fashion and textile design. These digital tools allow students to build on fundamental sketching techniques using pixels instead of paint.
Topics covered include; croquis (fashion figure) development, garment anatomy (silhouette and style lines), and fabric renderings (texture, pattern, and embellishment). Students complete a set of digital presentation boards (mood boards, fashion drawings, and flats) and produce an original fabric design. This course is structured to encourage analytical thinking and creative problem-solving.
Required supplies and books for all classes are listed on the main website, at schooloffashiondesign.org/supplies. Students are responsible for having the required materials for the first day of class. We also have a limited supply of books available for sale at the school, viewable on this site under Products.
