Take your designs from concept to reality! Discover your own style while learning technical skills to execute fashionable garments. Develop original ideas, find inspiration in the world around you, and respond to the work of other artists and designers. Explore sculptural draping by using paper to create exciting experimental garments on the dress form. As your designs develop, technical skills are introduced, including printing, embroidery, draping, and machine sewing. Visits to the Art Institute of Chicago and the Flaxman Library provide inspiration and supplement the studio experience. Each student creates a complete garment by the end of the course. Lessons/projects change each semester so students may enroll in this course multiple times.
