In this course students will work on a group project and will create their first collection taking the role of the creative director. They will research brand Identity, its market and its customer profile and trends through extensive research. Once they have exhausted all avenues of research they will present a capsule collection concept (justified by the previous research) and will develop its style, silhouette, fabric and build a collection range plan explaining through verbal and visual research, why they have made such choices.
The assessment will be composed of the process and development of the final project (during classes), the content of the final project and the presentation itself.
