In this course we will explore the notion of narrative and storytelling as it exists within the field of fashion, or storytelling for fashion designers -- how a ‘story’ is created, what it conveys, and how it is conveyed. The course will provide an opportunity for students to familiarize themselves with the traditional and experimental ways that storytelling might be used to create personal stories, to generate individual points of view and to develop characters. We will look at the tradition of film as narrative and the familiar narrative and plot strategies that are used. Concepts may be realized through synopsis, story-boards, sketch and garment development, simple video, fashion styling and/or photography.
