    Rethinking Fabric: the Application of Fabric Manipulation Techniques in Fashion Design Education
    (Wiley, 2022) Burns, Angela
    Within the context of fashion design, fabric is the key variable in the design process, offering infinite options in terms of variety, quality, weight, colour, texture and pattern. The manipulation of these fabrics is an effective tool at the designer's disposal, which can be used to create innovation in a design. This study examines the use of fabric manipulation for fostering creativity in the context of fashion design education. It explores a variety of approaches to this subject that can be employed to enthuse, stimulate, and enable beginner level fashion students to recognise the value of fabric manipulation in creating innovative fashion design outcomes. It aims to examine the potential of fabric manipulation techniques as a method to reinvent basic fabrics, reflect concept ideas on a garment, expand student skillsets and develop originality in fashion design education. A detailed analysis of the application of textile design practices in the final year of study over twelve academic semesters, in both couture and ready-to-wear collections, aims to determine the uptake of fabric manipulation as a major design component in the context of final year graduation fashion collections.

    Upcycling Classics—sustainable Design Development Through Fabric Manipulation Techniques in Fashion Design Education
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2024) Burns, Angela
    As the sustainable fashion movement gains momentum, there is a growing need to introduce such concepts to the next generation of fashion designer. One approach to produce sustainable designs is upcycling, defined as the salvage and reuse of discarded or found items into new products. This study examines a pedagogical approach for engaging 2nd year undergraduate textile and fashion design students in sustainable fashion design practice. Working in groups, students are challenged to upcycle old clothing into a little black dress, using a keyword as direction for concept, design development, and garment construction techniques. To elevate value in post-consumer textile waste, it is necessary to develop high-quality contemporary design outcomes. This teaching approach aims to encourage the revaluation of recyclable resources, the exploration of the creative potential of fabric manipulation techniques, experimental design development, and professional production techniques. This is achieved through the implementation of a design brief that establishes original approaches to upcycling, contrary to the arbitrary processes that are typically used. © 2024 National Society for Education in Art and Design and John Wiley & Sons Ltd.

    An Approach To Develop Creativity by Understanding Structure in Fashion Design Education
    (Ege Univ, 2017) Vuruşkan, Arzu; Burns, Angela
    There are numerous approaches that can be considered for analysing structure in fashion design. In order to create something new, a move away from conventional generic shapes toward more interesting structures is a necessity. The purpose of this study was to investigate an approach to the design process that could facilitate the understanding of structure as a fundamental component of fashion design and support students' development in creativity with structurally interesting garments. By developing a concept based on nature using 2-dimensional visual source material, drawing, collage, and experimental research development in the form of a sketchbook, a group of students from Department of Fashion Design who joined the project, were encouraged to make a rational analysis of the structural elements at their disposal. By executing a series of exercises aimed at exploring structure, students were observed to make a gradual progression from 2-dimensional research through design development, to 3-dimensional garment construction. In conjunction with the idea of structurally interesting designs, fabric choices, pattern making and garment construction were also considered. Each step from 2-dimensional exercises to garment construction was recorded as visual and written documentation. Additionally, a questionnaire was developed to receive student opinions and feedback. As a result, configuration of the design exercises and the project setup has been identified as an encouraging approach both to develop students' understanding of structure in fashion design and for the development of creativity in 3-dimension.

    Moda Tasarımı Eğitiminde Yaratıcı Tasarım ve Kalıpgeliştirme İçin Origami Kullanımı
    (Chamber of Textile Engineers, 2019) Gündoğan, Arzu Vuruşkan; Burns, Angela
    Duruma yönelik tasarım odaklı düşünce yaklaşımı (Situation based design-thinking), tasarımcıları, bilgi ve yeteneklerini kullanarak tasarım çözümleri bulmak üzere, yenilikler aramaya yönlendirir. Bu çalışmada, tasarım odaklı düşünce yaklaşımı ile, moda tasarımı eğitiminde üç boyutlu yaratıcı düşünceyi teşvik etmek üzere geliştirilen bir süreç incelenmektedir. Araştırma için, Moda ve Tekstil Tasarımı Bölümü 2. sınıf öğrencileri ile bir uygulama gerçekleştirilmiştir. İki boyutlu fikirlerin üç boyutlu giysilere dönüştürülmesi sürecine odaklanarak yürütülen uygulamanın esin kaynağı olarak origami seçilmiş; böylece, öncelikle kâğıt üzerinde tasarlanan ve daha sonra kumaş ile yeniden yorumlanıp etek tasarımına dönüştürülen yaratıcı giysi yapılarının geliştirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma sonuçları, projede uygulanan yöntemin, moda tasarımı eğitiminde yaratıcı düşünmeyi geliştirmek üzere başarılı bir yöntem olduğunu göstermektedir. Moda tasarımı ve kalıp hazırlama eğitimi için önerilen bu süreçte, giysi yapımı ve tasarım aşamaları birleştirilerek, tasarım öğrencilerinin deneysel bakış açılarını geliştirecek ve yenilikçi giysi yapılarına ulaşmalarına yardımcı olacak güncel bir yaklaşım sunulmaktadır.
