Let me start out by introducing myself. I am a senior at ISU getting a double degree in Apparel Creative Design and Performing Arts Dance. My main focus for Performing Arts is in costuming, combining both of my degrees.
Now, on to my internship...
My internship is a combination of a fashion internship that I completed over the summer and studying abroad at London College of Fashion this Fall semester. For this entry I'll focus on my summer internship.
My fashion internship was with Derek Lawlor in London, England working on his SS13 collection. I worked from the beginning of June until London Fashion Week in September where he showed the collection. I spent my summer doing various tasks including: pattern making, alterations, re-construction, sewing, draping, market research, cord-work, and knitting. It was great working for Derek as he's a young designer and truly wants his interns to learn about the industry. He was great at helping us understand what was needed to make a fashion business work and get the end result.
