Many people dream of making it big and working in the fashion world. But to get there, you need to have a fashion portfolio (a fashion design portfolio). This article will tell you step by step how to make it.
Steps
Step 1. Decide if you want to create an online portfolio or if you want to mail one
Step 2. Create a nice folder if you want to make a good first impression
Or choose a container where you can put all your works, something simple that will show your love for fashion.
Step 3. Include swatches and group them by collection, color, season, etc
Step 4. Find some sketches you used, cut them out neatly, and place them on quality project paper
This way you can include initial and final sketches. You also need to show how you turned a sketch into a complete project, including photos of the final work.
Step 5. Collect fabric samples that you can show to interested people, to show what materials you used and to present a nice tidy work
Make a hem and attach them to a metal ring, just like in the shops.
Step 6. Add photos of projects, dresses, models, jewelry, accessories, etc
Step 7. Put them in order so that the board understands your work
Advice
- Make sure you finish the project on time.
- Make sure you have all the necessary papers and documents.
- When delivering the portfolio (if you do it in person), wear professional clothing.
- Show the portfolio to someone, in order to have the opinion of other people.
- Don't be afraid of criticism! Your possible employers will criticize you 10 times more heavily.
Warnings
- YOU COULD be rejected. If this happens, keep your head up and try again. Don't be discouraged by rejection!
- Don't overdo it, especially if your future depends on this project.
