More about this course

On this three-week course from Bloomsbury Academic, you'll explore the steps involved with designing fashion products, including the development and use of the design brief, determining the costs to manufacture fashion products, and creating technical specifications for manufacturing fashion products.
Everything in fashion starts with a design brief. It not only outlines the design and development of fashion lines, but also acts as a guide to help design, develop, and communicate a unified design strategy and brand identity.
You'll look at the entire design process, starting with the design brief and its numerous components. You'll also explore how to develop cost estimates, arrange the technical aspects of designs, and manage the product life cycle.
Preproduction processes are crucial to assuring that the fashion products specified are what actually get manufactured in the time frame necessary.
This course will guide you through the various preproduction processes such as patternmaking and creating prototypes and samples. Then, you'll learn about the other aspects that require consideration such as fabrics, materials, and trims, as well as size range and styles.
In today's global fashion supply chain, manufacturing occurs worldwide. To be competitive, manufacturing facilities must be responsive, flexible, efficient, cost-effective, and socially responsible.
In the final week of the course, you'll delve into the manufacturing process for fashion products. You'll look at the inner workings of global manufacturing and the strategies you can use to manage the manufacturing process.
