Fashion Design From the courts of Marie Antoinette to modern designers, fashion continues to influence our everyday lives. This course will cover the basic principles of fashion, giving you a taste for what it takes to create your own line of clothing. You will focus on the alteration and manipulation of existing patterns and garments along with the sewing skills to create original, creative designs. Additionally you will learn embellishment, basic millinery, and an introduction to the making of accessories. At the end of the class we will put on a fashion show where your outfits and accessories take center stage.
