We will be studying samples from fiber artists and fashion houses to get inspired and excited about the possibilities of embellishments in our own work and wear! Some supplies will be available, and students are encouraged to bring clothing, canvas, hand dyed fabrics, swatches, or any other textiles to add depth and personality and create unique pieces.

1. Introduction to a range of embellishment histories and styles in fashion and art

    • Garments you would like to transform
