Summary of today
Through the simple understanding of the above new Chinese designers, we can easily find that independent designers have also injected a lot of fresh blood into the current clothing market, Whether they are early research, appearance breakthrough, function realization, almost every link is integrated with unique creativity , so we can get a firm foothold in this complicated market.
The same is true of the students when they create their portfolios. Many students believe that overseas art schools attach importance to self-expression and emphasize personal style, and will reject market-oriented commercial topics. However, these designers have a good grasp of personal color and commercial market balance.
Therefore, students should draw more inspiration from these designs to transform their works of art into works that meet the market, This is one of the comprehensive abilities that future designers need to have.
