Styled to Rock! Join our
edgy rock and roll design team to create fashion-forward looks like a pop star
celebrity icon! Each of the four fashion design workshops will allow you to
gain a taste of real life experience in the design room. Each workshop will
focus on one of the four processes of fashion design development: fashion
research, illustration, technical flats, and construction techniques. These
workshops are upbeat, high-energy and fun! We will incorporate students’
interests in music, media and current scene trends in each workshop. So take
one to immerse yourself in one design aspect or take all four to complete your
fashion-forward look. Instructor: Missy Bernstein
