Fashion Product Development

3 units

This studio course takes product design from concept to pre-production. Using industry-based software for CAD and 3D rendering, students will develop components of technical packages for production including vector-based drawings, specifications, costing, and sourcing of both materials and manufacturing. Principles of economic, environmental and ethical practices in the global market will be explored. Exercises and projects will emphasize technical precision and critical thinking, and result in production-quality technical packages for fashion products.
