摘要

In a collaborative effort to augment the understanding and utilization of principles across the fashion merchandising and design curricula, a project was developed to expand the application of knowledge beyond one course or one major. The purpose of the project was for the students to research a selected fashion designer, understand the designer's inspiration process, develop a contemporary line of apparel capturing elements of the selected designer, and develop a plan to market the line of apparel designed.
