Synopsis:

For fashion design students looking to start their professional career. Learn how to showcase your talents and stand out from the competition in your quest for a rewarding job in the fashion industry. Used in numerous international fashion design schools, Creating a Successful Fashion Collection: Everything You Need to Develop a Great Line and Portfolio instructs in editing and targeting a Graduate Collection, and then shows how to present it in a winning portfolio.


Esteemed fashion designer Steven Faerm discusses the thesis collection from first concept and inspiration to a final merchandising plan. He goes on to analyze the qualities that make a stellar portfolio--its layout, use of color, labeling, and more. Following chapters focus on strategies for successful job hunting, including creating a winning résumé and cover letter, making a winning impression at job interviews, seeking out internships, and more. The book concludes with descriptions of specific careers to seek in the fashion industry, including fashion designer, costume designer, patternmaker, buyer, fashion journalist, fashion illustrator, and many others.


This inspiring text is complemented with more than 400 color illustrations and has been regarded as one of the most trusted resources for aspiring fashion students.
