Therefore, the collection of fashion design works should also fully display the diversity of works. The collection of works should be composed of various media and methods. It is not necessary to include only the works of this specialty, but painting, sculpture, ceramics, etc. In addition, Pratt will pay more attention to students' painting skills, so it is suggested to show students' painting ability through more collections of works.
Pratt, as one of the top universities in New York, enjoys rich fashion resources, and is more rigorous and orderly in teaching than other universities, as well as in reviewing the content of student works. Therefore, students should pay attention to the improvement of technical ability while giving full play to creativity. And you can also try more forms of creation combined with fashion design.

In addition, the development process of works is sufficient, and the quality of finished products is the same as that of other departments.
The Royal College of Arts encourages people to deeply explore humanistic and social topics (such as LGBT culture, feminist movement, religious values, philosophical concepts, poetic expression and other aspects of material), and on this basis, choose a unique perspective and expression that can correspond to them, and develop and present their own works. RCA's own college has a detailed and comprehensive division of disciplines, and there are many cooperation opportunities that can be freely selected and controlled by students.
