In this ongoing fashion design class, designers will create a capsule collection inspired by a new concept each week using a custom illustration template. At the beginning of class, designers will be presented with the weekly concept board (theme image). Together we will discuss ideas for how to use the concept in our design work. We will discuss how to break down the concept and use it as inspiration by focusing on design elements and principles. Each class we will design and illustrate a new 4-piece collection.
We will be sketching with pencils and coloring with markers or colored pencils. No previous experience is required. This class can be taken at a beginner, intermediate, or advanced level. We will meet 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!
