What you will learn

Choosing the fabric, materials, and trim is an exciting and critical part of the design process. A style may require specific materials to communicate the full vision or function of the design, it's crucial that any designer learns about textiles.

 

By the end of this Textile 101 course, students will gain a comprehensive understanding of textiles, enabling them to confidently navigate the world of fabrics, their characteristics, and applications in design. Through a structured exploration of terminology, processes, properties, and finishes, students will be able to discern the journey from fibers to yarns and appreciate the significance of each stage in textile production. They will differentiate between natural and manmade fibers, while also distinguishing between various fabric constructions including woven, knit, and non-woven variations.

 

Furthermore, students will actively engage with the course content to compile a Swatch Kit that serves as an invaluable reference tool. This kit will encompass a diverse range of fabric samples, each representing distinct properties and textures, fostering a tactile understanding of textiles. This hands-on approach will empower students to select and utilize fabrics effectively in future design endeavors, as they integrate their knowledge of textiles into the creative process.

 

 This course seeks to instill in students not only a mastery of textile terminology and concepts but also a profound ability to evaluate, select, and manipulate fabrics to bring their creative visions to life to create styles that sells.

WHAT OUR STUDENTS ARE SAYING ABOUT US:

"For years I have been dreaming about becoming a fashion designer but always found it to be unattainable. This school has changed that. I leave every class so confident and excited about what I have learned and can’t wait to come back. The schedule, class size, cost, and talent of the professors are almost too good to be true. But trust me, they are."

Hello Fashionistas! I really like taking classes at The Fashion Institute of South Florida. After many years of looking around for a good, affordable and flexible fashion school in Miami, I’m lucky enough to have found this. I have been learning so much with the classes and the schedule is very convenient for me.  I’m almost ready to enter to fashion world and launch my own clothing label! All thanks to The Fashion Institute of South Florida!"
