aftershock said:It's kind of sad how true this is, I've talked to a lot of my classmates (at Parsons) and you hear them go on and on about how they're going to take over the world with their designs and have people under them doing all the hard work like patternmaking, sewing and merchandising...while they just sketch up the designs and drink a cup of Starbucks or something.
it's so crazy that kids still think this way. like for me the main reason i decided to go into fashion was because i really enjoy the whole process of making a garment from scratch including patternmaking and sewing. i really do. if anything i probably have a harder time drawing and executing an idea because i always end up adding or changing the idea when i'm working on the pattern for it.
it's also funny how some students at my school want to leave because they assume Parsons will be a better school because they think they'll be like their alumni. Reality check is that you can do the same at any school all you need is money , business plan, and good new and marketable designs!
