Course programme
Clothes are worn on the body. Our bodies are three-dimensional forms. Why then do we often rely on designing in 2D? Why begin in 2D when the outcome must be in 3D? Fashion Thinking in 3D will encourage you to explore alternatives to the 2D design process. This course will introduce you to ways of developing designs and patterns in 3D without necessarily needing to draw.
If you have existing work - either 2D or 3D - that you would like to develop in a new direction, you are encouraged to bring this along for discussion and advice. As well workshops, there will be opportunity for one-to-one advice on your work. The course will help you to recognise your strengths and develop your creative identity within an open framework.
Topics covered
During the course you will be introduced to a variety of ways in which exciting outcomes can be created through systematic experimentation. These will include:
- working with fabrics directly onto the dummy or body
- deconstructing and reconstructing existing garments
- construction without seams
- folding, collage and much more
By the end of the course, successful students will have a sketchbook of focussed research, a capsule collection, a range of skills and techniques and a new perspective on the design process.
Who should take this course?
Whether you are already working in the industry and would like an inspiration boost or you are totally new to fashion design, this could be the course for you.
