OptiTex: Buffalo Loves Cotton Fashion Mash
The Buffalo Loves Cotton Fashion Mash line-up is a group of 15 garments that were developed sequentially with a collaborative series of projects in different fashion classes. The Fashion Mash line up will be a featured scene in the upcoming Runway 4.0 that will take place this Saturday, April 16th, 2011 at the Pierce Arrow building on Elmwood Avenue in Buffalo, NY at 4PM and 8:30PM. More information on the BSCRUNWAY blog. The fabrics were selected from projects in FTT304: Adobe Pattern Development for Industry. Garment designs were part of a larger project in FTT308: FashionCAD. Garment patterns were developed on the OptiTex multi-dimensional application in the FTT327: Computerized Patternmaking class. Some garments were draped in FTt328: Draping and garment construction took place in FTt324: Industrial Apparel Assembly.
