Yes Sir- That’s Right! After 7 solid weeks of insanity and one solid week of rest, my instructors approved my senior Pre-Collection.
For those of you scratching your heads, this is how it works:
On September 1, we begin designing our collection from scratch. We have 7 weeks to have research, 6 approved looks, full technical flats, and two sets of garments- one set in final fabric, one set in muslin- made for presentation. This breakdown is essentially what you’ll see in the photos I’m loading with this entry.

Upon approval, We continue to make two full looks every two weeks, which we then fit to a model for adjustments. I’m going to post photos shortly of our Test-fit session and talk a little about the patterning process and garment building. At the end of the Semester, there’s another approval process (Collection Approval) where they give us the green light to make all garments in final fabrics…
But for now… Yay!!
