Asynchronous activities prompt participants to consider how social issues converge with the fashion industry, and many of these inquiries serve as the impetus for design inspirations. Exciting activities include working with dyes, fabrics, alternative materials, and industry-standard machinery. Mentors are typically on standby to offer constructive criticism as you grow a concept from a vision board to a fashion show piece. While some programs require previous sewing experience, others welcome beginners arriving with only ideas. Additionally, many summer programs invite guest speakers from fashion houses to spill the details on what it’s really like to land (and keep) a job.
This week, immerse yourself in hands-on fashion projects that mirror real-world scenarios in the fashion industry. By the end of the week, you’ll have a professional-quality project that showcases your skills and creativity, as if you already have experience working in fashion. You’ll need to complete application forms, which require signatures from both you and your parents. Make sure everything is filled out accurately before returning the forms to the NYC Studio via email or mail.
This project is the perfect companion to our Patchwork Jacket camp, making a full custom outfit possible! You will learn sewing basics, garment construction, and creative expression through patchwork design.

The program is designed to help students discover or grow their passion for fashion. Therefore, no previous experience is required, just an interest or a passion for these topics. Our design industry professionals and staff are dedicated to mentoring our students on their creative paths, supporting them throughout camp and beyond.

Kiyomi is still using the skirt and belt she made in camp last summer and loves sharing with others that she made them! We were impressed with the quality and appreciate that the instructors provided robust support of her fledgling sewing skills to help her turn her design dreams into reality.
