Apparel Design

In celebration of the inauguration of President Williams, the Apparel Design department will open its studio spaces, offering visitors insight into the various approaches explored within apparel design. Engaging the intimacy of craft as an embodied practice, the making and wearing of clothes becomes a potent form of communication that lives at the intersections between politics, society and culture. A few fully fashioned garments will be on display as well as film shorts that activate students’ proposals for clothing, publications that express sophomores’ identities and smells/scents that capture the sensory experiences of clothing developed in conjunction with seniors’ thesis projects.

ABOUT

In Apparel Design, students prepare to be conscious leaders in the field who approach fashion as a platform for cultural dialogue. Through immersive, studio-based practice, they establish unique design languages and clearly articulated creative processes. Makers of thoughtful and thought-provoking garments, majors generate both fashion and knowledge, continually reimagining what apparel and the systems for producing it can be.
