Julianne Lavery

This course will aim to teach you the fundamental principles, inspiration and techniques pertaining to Visual Merchandising. The key focus will be on fashion retail and it inextricable relationship to 'the Fashion brand'. Students will look at fashion retail from exterior - interior, from window design to internal shop floor layout and product merchandising. The course content will be delivered in the form of lectures, analysis , discussion and visits. Two major projects will be undertaken, the first will be an analytical written exercise, the second will be a creative concept. Both will harness the use of presentation techniques, which will be taught and practiced in class.
