(intermediate level) this week you will design on paper an outfit and an accessory like a matching hat, purse, or scarf. Then, we will make the outfit. This is a BIG challenge and I would like to encourage students interested in making their own clothes or interested in Fashion design to attend this camp. You must be registered for a FULL DAY camp for this. We will also work on  making your personal Fashion Design Portfolio during this camp.

If you did this camp last year we will continue to build your fashion design portfolio and encourage you to challenge yourself in more difficult projects.

Upon  completion of this camp, you will receive a beautiful large rosette fashion design ribbon,  a certificate, a Fashion Design T-shirt, and your art work and outfit will be featured on our website.
