पाठ्यक्रमबारे सारश

This program combines the rigorous study of fashion and textile history with hands-on training in the analysis, conservation, storage, and exhibition of textile and costume materials, and in collections management and exhibition planning and design. The hallmark of this interdisciplinary program is its blend of theory and practice. Students will study the historical and cultural significance of fashion interpretation, and be trained to approach costume and textile history from various traditional and innovative perspectives. Students will also learn practical skills, from how to identify fibers and treat various kinds of objects, to the proper way to roll a textile and dress a mannequin. Students will gain experience in planning and organizing an exhibition by working with fellow students to create and install an actual exhibition in The Museum at FIT. Students handle every aspect, from selection, research, and presentation of the objects to print materials, publicity, and opening reception. Internship opportunities offer additional experience and professional contacts.
