FASHION DESIGN

The LdM Fashion Design Certificate offers students the opportunity to work in a variety of career disciplines: Fashion Designer, Fashion Editor, Stylist, Illustrator, Patternmaker, Quality Manager, Fashion Critic, Product Developer, Technical Drawer, Show Room Manager, Personal Shopper and many more.

Students are given an overview of the industry, as well as a solid foundation of costume history and textile science. As the consumer is the driving force behind every market, students are taught consumer behavior and trend forecasting, as well as quality assurance to meet consumer needs.

Draping, pattern making, construction, and illustration are taught, allowing each student to execute a collection which will later be displayed during a fashion show or an exhibit at the end of the year. These events are a collaborative and interdisciplinary effort between Fashion Design and Fashion Marketing & Merchandising students as well as students from other departments, such as Photography, Graphic, Jewelry and Interior Design.
