Welcome to the learning platform for Garment Construction and Textile Science! These two essential units will equip you with foundational knowledge and practical skills in the world of fashion and design.
Garment Construction
In this unit, you will learn the art and technical skills required to design and assemble garments. You will explore topics such as fabric selection, pattern making, sewing techniques, fitting, and garment finishing. Through hands-on projects, you will develop the skills to create well-constructed and functional garments that reflect both creativity and industry standards.
Textile Science
The Textile Science unit delves into the science behind fabrics, fibers, and materials. You will study the different types of fibers, their properties, production processes, and applications. This course will help you understand the technical aspects of textiles and how they affect garment performance, durability, and comfort. You will also gain knowledge of sustainable practices and fabric care, essential for creating high-quality designs.
Course Goals
Both units aim to:
- Develop a strong foundation in garment design and textile knowledge.
- Equip learners with both theoretical knowledge and hands-on skills.
- Foster creativity and innovation in fashion and textile applications.
