About the Fashion & Textile
Design Program
The fashion industry and its related businesses constitute some of the most fascinating reflections of our culture. If you are drawn to fabric, color, apparel, or design, this might be the perfect summer program for you. No prior knowledge of design or garment construction is needed for this course. Students receive step-by-step detailed instruction as part of their studies, and work produced during the program is suitable for inclusion in a college application portfolio.
You'll experience being a full-time University fashion and textile design student, with all of the excitement and challenge of hands-on instruction, professional equipment, and inspiration and guidance from University faculty. The six-week session, which earns six college credits, is divided into four modules. In Introduction to the World of Fashion, you'll step into the fashion universe by learning fashion drawing and studying current fashion periodicals.
Weaving and Woven Textiles will provide another chance for hands-on study. You'll design and construct a simple woven garment while
considering design, color, and technique in its production.
In Introduction to Fashion Knits, you will
learn to use electronic knitting machines and experiment with color and pattern as you design and construct a project of your own.
Introduction to Industry Garment Construction invites and guides you to create a fashion garment similar to those produced by college freshmen in the fashion design major.
In addition to busy days in the studio, you'll enjoy guest speakers from the fashion and textile industries and take field trips to fascinating fashion and textile sites.
The program culminates in an exhibition located on the Syracuse campus. The exhibition, showcasing six weeks from all the course modules, is an exciting celebration of the work of student accomplishment.
