Fashion Design
Fashion design is an exciting, fast-paced field in which some of America’s most intelligent artists are working.
Our talented instructors show girls that fashion design makes use of a great deal of academic knowledge,
as well as creativity and talent. They present scholarly material in a creative, hands-on environment,
and allow girls to immerse themselves in the tasks of designing a space or piece of clothing. No previous
design or drawing experience is required, just eagerness to learn and the desire to create.
The Fashion Design curriculum helps girls identify and respond to clothing trends, with the end result of
planning their own themed clothing line and designing a garment.
Our classroom experience is supplemented by many on- and off-campus field trips, where girls look at
famous spaces and clothes, and talk to professionals who give them an insider’s view of the fashion and
interior design industries. Girls leave the program with the ability and courage to explore their unique design
concepts as well as a sound understanding of the design process in general, one that will help them in an
array of creative pursuits.
