A fashion sketchbook is a very important tool to take into consideration when developing a portfolio of work and to stimulate your creativity while building a rich body of work that visually explains your thought process from observation, research and realization. The aim of the course is to support students with the development of a theme from research, through fabric development and fresh fashion ideas development. You will learn to store anything that triggers your creative reaction and to arrange images that relate to each other so that each spread has a cohesive mood and direction.
