Sharing a fashion idea through drawing is an increasingly sought-after skill in the Fashion System. Smart Fashion Design introduces the fundamental techniques of fashion figure graphic representation, offering useful tools to translate a collection's concepts, lines and volumes into images.
The programme is developed in two training steps: initially, fashion illustration stylisation, colouring techniques and the graphic rendering of materials are covered; subsequently, the complete design of a collection is undertaken with moodboards, colour palettes, executive illustrations and technical drawings.
