Description
In this subject the primary emphasis is to introduce students to the fundamentals of working with stretch and fully-fashion knitted applications 'on-the-body'. The subject combines design and technical components, and teaches students how to develop design concepts suitable for predetermined markets, including advanced patternmaking, constructing garment toiles, body fitting techniques, and critiquing final garment design for swim/activewear, bodywear, or fully-fashioned knitwear.
The subject is supported by a series of lectures with industry specialists as a means for students to advance their knowledge and provide research pathways and specialisations for third-year subjects. Students are challenged to develop original garment designs to translate into realised outcomes including branding packages appropriate to the fashion industry through creative photoshoots and fashion films.
