  This semester, we focused on learning how to use AI-powered software to assist in fashion design, especially in creating technical drawings. Throughout the course, we explored a wide range of AI tools and techniques that helped us sketch garments more efficiently and precisely. We learned how to generate clean outlines, enhance structural details, and even automate some parts of the design process using AI. Under the guidance of Mr. Danial, we also gained valuable skills in adding color and fabric textures to our technical drawings. He taught us how to apply color logically and realistically, how to reflect different materials, and how to make a flat sketch look more dimensional and visually appealing. This greatly improved the clarity and professionalism of our design presentations. In the later part of the course, we were introduced to Photoshop (PS). We practiced key functions such as removing backgrounds, organizing layers, and refining the overall composition to make our vis...

Fashion project 2

For Fashion Project 2 this semester, our theme was to design garments for Converse. I developed my concept by merging the streetwear spirit of Converse with parachute-inspired elements, aiming to create a unique blend of utility and urban attitude. At the beginning of the project, I started by researching the brand identity, history, and visual language of Converse to better understand its core values and audience. Once I finalized the direction of using parachute aesthetics—such as straps, volume, folds, and technical materials—I began sketching my design ideas. I created a total of 20 design sketches, and from those, I selected two designs to further develop and bring to life. To explore construction and detailing, I produced samples and experimented with fabric manipulation techniques that reflected the parachute concept. After finalizing the design lines, I moved on to the pattern-making process, followed by purchasing fabrics. I first chose to work with Calico to create a fu...

Programme： Bachelor of Fashion Design Technology Module： DST64604 INNOVATIVE INDUSTRY PROJECT Semester： SEPTEMBER 2025 – JANUARY 2026 Lecturers： Dr.Alshaimaa Alanadoly & Ms.Tracy Vollbrecht Student Name：WEI HONG BIN Student ID：0367238 Week 1 In Week 1 of the Innovative Industry Project module, I was introduced to the overall structure, objectives, and expectations of Assignment I, which focuses on project and design research within the context of adaptive fashion. The lecture emphasized the importance of understanding adaptive fashion as a human-centred and inclusive design approach, particularly for people with disabilities. This week’s content helped me gain a clearer understanding of the target user group, especially individuals with Cerebral Palsy, and highlighted the need to look beyond aesthetics when designing clothing. Key discussions focused on the physical, emotional, and social challenges faced by this group, as well as how clothing can impact comfort, independence, dign...
