Draping

The Competency-Based Certificate program in Draping is intended primarily for those students who need to enhance their draping skills but do not wish to enroll in a degree program. The program consists of four sequential courses which are offered over a four-semester time span. Projects that incorporate both draping and patternmaking techniques are explored using a variety of approaches and methods in developing and analyzing patterns.

Admission to the program requires a knowledge of clothing construction and/or tailoring skills, and the permission of the Fashion Design chairperson, evening coordinator, or an academic advisor.

The courses do not replace draping courses in the Fashion Design degree track. Full-time and part-time Fashion Design and Patternmaking students may take them for extra credit or as free electives.
