Program SAPU in English - Cracow School of Art and Fashion Design
The 2.5 year full-time program introduces students to the essential skills of fashion and textile design from sketch pad to catwalk. It includes fashion design, textiles, fashion illustration, garment construction and garment styling. English classes are held for two years and Polish classes are held for one year. The graduates receive diploma – Fashion Designer.
Throughout the first semester students are introduced to the basic skills necessary to develop their creativity. There are separate workshops for life drawing, colour study, composition, painting, shoe design, jewellery design and apparel design.
The second semester provides students with the opportunity for further development of their skills in fashion design. New workshops are introduced, i.e. patternmaking, shoe design and textile design. Different colour techniques, modes of expression and numerous presentation methods are offered to the students. At the end of each semester students present their work at a scheduled fashion show.
The second year employs the basic skills already learned to develop a personal style through design research and to study many different fashion products. Students practise sketching men, women and children, and they research fashion trends, fabric choices, colour cards, and current season’s publicity material. In this year we emphasize definition, development and creation of collections. New workshops are introduced, i.e.: accessories including millinery, textile technology, fashion photography and the history of fashion. Again, at the end of each semester, students’ works are presented at fashion shows.
The fifth and final semester concludes with an opportunity to design and manufacture a collection. The best collections are presented at the Diploma Show Cracow Fashion Awards, in late March, the highlight of the school’s academic year. The show is attended by many distinguished visitors, industry representatives seeking new talent, gallery owners, media, as well as parents and friends. The Diploma Show is accompanied by the Exhibition of graduates’ paintings, drawings, photography and jewelry works.
