Can I teach myself how to design and cut clothes?

Self-study is difficult, but it is not completely impossible. You can also study online or buy some teaching materials. But I think it's boring. If you can, you'd better sign up for a class and a training class. It is much better to have teachers who give lectures and classmates who study together. Learning design must be communicated to be effective. I met a net friend yesterday. She asked me: Can I teach myself fashion design? I'll exchange this netizen's question for you! I found that there are many friends who are interested in fashion design now, some of whom like fashion design from a very young age, but for various reasons, they have never had the opportunity to learn! But this can't stop their interest in fashion design, or they are looking for opportunities to learn again!

If you really love fashion design, you can teach yourself! I'll just talk about how to teach myself.

Before studying, you should first know what basic knowledge and skills you should have as a fashion designer. Only when you understand this, can you have a clear direction of efforts and you can learn accordingly! According to my research and understanding of fashion design, I summed up three points, which are the basic knowledge and skills that a fashion designer should master!

First, learn to draw design sketches and accurately express design ideas, which is the first step in design!

For friends who have a certain art foundation, first learn to copy some simple design drafts to warm up, and then learn to copy detailed and standardized design drafts in the company, so that the training of drawing design drafts is targeted enough, and you will soon learn to draw the design drafts that the company wants!

For friends who have no art foundation, they should start training from the basics and copy simple design drafts (these can be seen in my diary). First, lay the foundation for practicing lines; Secondly, we have a clearer understanding of the style and structure of clothing. This is much faster than the traditional sketch learning, and it is not boring and more targeted. When you learn to draw a design draft, your design dream will be realized by 50%!

I'll give you a few simple design drafts here:

Let me show you some of the most practical design drafts of clothing companies:

Second, learn to make clothes. You can buy a second-hand flat car to practice this, or you can sign up for a craft training class after work, which is not bad. You can learn how to use many kinds of machines with tuition fees around 300 yuan, which is also very cost-effective. As long as you practice, you can sew clothes in a few months! In fact, the purpose of learning clothing technology is to better learn plate making. Only with a clear understanding of the structure of clothing can we learn plate making better!

Third, learn to make clothes. By learning the craft production, we can understand the structure of various parts of clothing, so it is better to cut into the education edition! Generally, a good plate-making training costs about 5000 yuan, so you should learn from the company's experienced masters, so you can learn more practical things! Now there are many schools that teach plate making, which need careful screening!

Some friends will ask, as a designer, you need to know about the market, noodles and accessories. So besides learning these basics well, you should pay more attention to the fashion trend of clothing and have a chance to see more about the clothing market. If you are close to the noodle and accessories market, you can also go to the fabric market.

If you study in this order, you can not only save time and tuition, but also learn more concretely and practically! I suggest that all the friends who take the self-study exam find a job that can make them independent first, so that learning is more practical and easier to achieve.

All right, let's talk about it first. It's rare to have a rest today!
