Fashion Design & Illustration for Teens
What's included
1 live meeting
40 mins in-class hours per weekClass Experience
US Grade 9 - 12
In this ongoing fashion design class, designers will create their own unique designs each week. A custom croquis template will be provided but it is not required. Students will be encouraged to explore their own concepts and inspirations to create 1-4 looks each class. We will discuss design ideas together and I will sketch along with students, provide rendering tips, concept ideas, and offer advice and encouragement while we create together. Learners will have the opportunity to focus on what they want to work on, so in the same session one person may be working on fancy gowns while another may be working on athleisure. Because of this, each weekly topic will be learner-directed. We will be sketching with pencils and coloring with markers or colored pencils. No previous experience is required. This class meets once a week, but the classes do not build on each other, so if you miss a class, you can jump right back in! This class is perfect for the student that loves to draw fashion and is looking to design alongside an industry veteran and a group of like-minded designers!
Learning Goals
Students will learn:
- how to use a croquis as a guide or a template
