FIRST-YEAR STUDIO

COLOR PROJECT Fashion and textile design students spend their first year mastering the fundamentals: color, line and form.

For the color project, students create surface designs based on a photograph of their choosing. The designs, which must center around the interaction between colors, are then translated to a 3D design software called Clo.

FTD 201: DIGITAL PRINT COLLECTION In the first project for FTD 201, students learn about the intricacies of color perception and reduction, develop color palettes and explore repeats and motifs.

Synthesizing this knowledge, students use Lectra Textile Designer (computer-aided design) CAD software to design a digital print collection.

FTD 201: KNIT COLLECTION In FTD 201, students take into consideration sourcing and technical logistics in order to create digital knit print patterns for their knit design project, which they present during a portfolio critique.

FTD 201: JACQUARD WEAVING COLLECTION In addition to learning print and knit design, students in FTD 201 are also exposed to jacquard weaving. For this project, students complete simulation workshops on technical logistics, the effect of filling color and presentation techniques. Using this information, students design digital weaving patterns.

FTD 321: DRAPING For the final project in FTD 321, students must design, make patterns and sew draped garments. To complete this, students apply draping and 3D analysis skills they learned through the course.

Other components of FTD 321 include draping challenges where students are given a picture of a draped garment to recreate during class time. Additionally, Clo 3D software is used to analyze fit differences. Grading is determined by the draping process, pattern making, prototyping and final sewing.

FTD 475: ADVANCED WEAVING Students take an in-depth exploration of jacquard weaving. Projects in the class challenge students to create a woven fabric collection based on their design inspiration.

The final project involves students presenting samples of their work from the semester, including fabric research and development.

Students are encouraged to be imaginative with their samples, applying technical and aesthetic skills.

THREADS: A STUDENT TEXPLORATION Threads: A Student Texploration is a showcase of fashion collections that have been designed and developed in the Senior Studio elective class as part of the Fashion Development and Product Management program in the Wilson College of Textiles. Each fall semester, students from the Fashion Development and Product Management program at NC State University’s Wilson College of Textiles showcase designs that have been developed in Senior Collection Studio.

These senior designers have created, developed, and produced an industry quality collection, emphasizing ideation, theme development, fit and fabrication. Threads is a showcase of talent, creativity, and skill; it is a culmination of techniques learned over the years through various courses in the FDPM concentration.

Explore this year's collections with the Threads Lookbook.

FTM 315 For the final project in FTM 315: Fashion Product Design, fashion development and product management students produce a unisex piece of apparel based on a custom sloper.

Students work in groups of two, with one student designated as the designer and coordinator and the other as the pattern and sample maker.

Tools such as Midjourney, an AI-powered art generator, are used to find inspiration for the apparel. Students must then design patterns, create prototypes and sew the garments that are presented at the end of the semester.

FTM 317: COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN FOR APPAREL Students develop CAD e-Portfolios through four mini projects during the semester.

By the end of the semester, students learn the operations of industry design software Gerber for 2D pattern-making and are introduced to 3D simulation.

For the final project, students use Clo 3D software to simulate a design, applying the pattern-making and fitting skills they learned earlier in the course.
