FIDM & Business Trends in the Fashion Industry

The FIDM is a school that offers degrees and majors on different types of artistic subjects, the campus is located in California. If you would like to be a fashion designer, then this is the school for you. I hear so much interesting things about this school. The representative of FIDM came to my class and talked about the advances and opportunities that they give. She played videos and explaining how is made their products and how they add images to grab the buyer's attention. Some of these images are made by specials effects. Furthermore, we saw two videos by celebrity singers Rihanna and Beyonce. Each of them represented a different company brand to make them more popular. Technology is now playing an important role in some stores. Los Angeles has a store that has a screen on the wall so you can see what sizes or colors you want on your jacket so you wouldn't have to go back to get another one. Ideas like this inspire me to become a fashion designer.

"Teamwork"

Teamwork

 "Teamwork"is when a group of people work together for the same cause, assignment, activity.In real life, sometimes you have to use teamwork in mostly everything, the reason why I say this is because, on some of activities or assignments, a person can't  do itself. Teamwork has pros and cons sometimes sharing thoughts ,comments, and opinions can be a positive or negative thing for example when I work in the lab with my teammates to get things done is have a good and positive result. However, working independent focuses me on doing my assignments and it also benefits me if I ever get paired up with someone that does none of the work. But the best way to get success is asking the team leader. Sometimes when I have some struggles in the lab, I will always ask someone on my team to help me out.

Agnes B.

The french designer ,Agnes b, is distinguished on simplicity, chic,and streamline suits. However this collection is the attraction of  relaxation and tranquility; furthermore, we saw on the catwalk models worn a comfortable suit.Also, we could see a pallet of pastel colors such as light green ,blue ,and pink. Then I saw some dresses with silhouettes. Cardigans  have been a part of this collection and what I like most about them is the touch delicate that it has . Shoes play a key role to these garments such as ankle heel, sandals, and sneakers. Few garments have a floral print, but what's interesting about them is the pattern. It has a very real like photo of a garden on them. Well, in this collection I notice that it has  minimalist for women but at the same time, it has an elegant and chic .

What are hems? How can they affect a garment's appearance?

                                                                   What are hems?                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             The hem is the edge of a piece of cloth that is has turned under and sewn. The term of " hemline"
entered  fashion-speak in the 1930s. When hem first became a focus in fashion, slavishly reported on how many inches about the floor the latest season's models were hemmed. Most of the hems were very useful at these  days for any cloth. In addition,  all types of  sewing techniques do not work for all types of fabrics.  Therefore, some fabrics hemline are heavy weight such as wool or lightweight like silk would require different sewing techniques.  If the measurement is incorrect the edge of the hem would be uneven  and for that reason, the garment would not be a good quality.  Last but not least, the hemline can be 1/4, 1/2, 1 1/4, and 2'. It depends on the fabric or the type of garment that would be constructed.
