FDES 280 Experimental Draping and Patterning
Students will explore radical free-form draping techniques, repurposing existing garments, and creating pattern blocks from resulting details and silhouettes. Sustainability issues - as well as in-depth research of creative influences and historical precedents - are considered in the generation of projects. Developing industry-level pattern-making skills will be a priority. Prerequisites: FDES 226, Advanced Technical Studio.
