Through an understanding of how to analyze design and styling, participants will learn how to autonomously carry out individual creative research, develop innovative design proposals, as well as managing the influences and needs of the market, or requests from a client brief or brand image. Participants will develop illustration skills, explore, and research new trends, as well as analyze the contemporary fashion business while reflecting on personal experience, culture, art, and design as sources of inspiration.
