CHALLENGE LESS IS MORE; Living With Less
In the fashion industry we always want to sell more since that is how we make money for ourselves and our families on the job. However, the social conscious and economic conditions are such that buying more as a consumer is very difficult. So what do you do? Your challenge is to come up with a fashion design that reflects the theme, LESS IS MORE; Living With Less. Look for ways to combine clothing items, recycle, reuse, less expensive fibers, less expensive construction.
The criterion for the competition is to create a collection that is either for men, women or children. Only do one area. The collection needs to have a combination of tops and bottoms or dresses . You may also add accessories and shoes. Secondly, the work needs to be drawn using one of the standards for fashion croquis. Examples of croquis (modles) are the Golden Mean, 7 head, 9 head or 13 head. You can look on the internet for examples to use.
