Fashion & STEM: A Perfect Fit

Monday, June 20, 2016 - 9:00 am to Friday, June 24, 2016 - 4:00 pm

On the first day of camp you will create your own fantasy apparel design and then you will explore the process of bringing designs to life. First, by bringing your design into a computer aided design (CAD) program and then by testing fabrics in the material science testing lab. You will answer the question - Which fabric is the best fit for your design? Design your own repeating pattern and print it on the campus fabric printer. Create a custom hair bow and backpack in the construction lab and finally use full-sized dress forms to build a wearable non-traditional design that you will model at the end of camp runway show and open house.
