Fashion Design For Beginners

Cheryl Eastap

The fundamentals of fashion design are taught in this one day per week course. We will cover the basics of fashion design including inspiration, research, developing your ideas, figure illustration and portfolio preparation. The course is suitable for absolute beginners as well as those with some previous experience. Students have gone on from this course to study on the more intensive Fashion Folio course.
