Class Experience

In this fashion design class, students will learn to render (draw accurately) sheer fabrics like chiffon and tulle. We will draw sheer fabric over skin, over other layers of sheer fabrics, and over solid fabrics to learn how to show the difference in a fashion sketch. We will look at pictures and trends that include sheer fabrics and the different ways in which designers render these fabrics, as well as some examples that the teacher and students can bring to the class. 

We will create our own fashion designs using sheer fabrics. Students should have some experience with fashion design. 

Please be sure to read the materials section, as we need different materials than we typically need in my fashion design classes. Let me know if you have any questions.

Learning Goals

Students will identify different types of sheer fabrics.
Students will learn to render sheer fabrics under different conditions. 
Students will create unique designs using sheer fabrics.

Other Details

Parental Guidance
Students will draw on a nude, undetailed fashion form called a "croquis". Though we are drawing sheer fabrics, "bathing suit parts" will be covered in our designs.
Supply List
Paper 
Fashion body (from fashion 101 or a printed figure)
Colored pencils, markers. Pastels are great to use for drawing sheer fabric, but pencils or crayons can be used instead if you don't have them. Be sure to have at least one skin tone AND a white colored pencil as well. 
Have a q-tip for blending; if you don't have it you can use your finger but it will get messy! 
A thin black marker for outlining, such as an ultra fine sharpie
If you own any sheer fabric (whether part of a garment or just as fabric) please bring it! It's great to have a model to look at.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
