Overview

Teaching Modules: Fashion Forward: Rethinking What We Wear (5 days at University) and Ao Dai Museum experience (1 day trip)

Fashion is more than just style — it's a dynamic system impacting our lives, creativity, and the planet. In this engaging summer course, students will discover the power of fashion in everyday life, honing their creativity and filmmaking skills to tell compelling stories. We'll explore the complex world of fast versus sustainable fashion and delve into diverse fabrics and performance textiles, including nature-based engineering for protection. Get ready for hands-on experience by making use of found objects in upcycling projects, transforming old into new. The journey culminates with an immersive Journey Through Vietnamese Fashion and Culture at Hồ Chí Minh City's Áo Dài Museum, where you'll explore the Áo Dài's rich history, participate in a photoshoot, and showcase your designs in a video competition.
