i love your creativity, my dream is to become a fashion designer and i JUST realized this was my passion so therefore, i do not have the materials and i have no idea where to get started. I am looking at FIT and Parsons, any advice ? 😭
Hi you still have time to get your portfolio and apply! I have a video where I talk more about portfolio advice here: th-cam.com/video/RLIHNEDNqng/w-d-xo.html
As a first gen and senior in HS, how do I start all this? I’m working on making a portfolio but I don’t really know how to sew or anything, and I don’t really have the money for fabrics. Will this be a problem?
That’s not a problem at all. Your portfolio doesn’t have to include any sewing related projects for you to declare as a fashion major (in terms of Parsons). Just make good work and choose the best to include in your portfolio!
@@KarinaPlum do you know where I can find the fashion design portfolio requirements on the site?? I have looked EVERYWHERE and I haven’t seen anything.
heyyy! i'm form Brazil. i wanted to ask like, clearly before u enter any fashion college u MUST know how to sew and make patterns? can't u talk more about it?
Hello! Every college has different requirements, some require you to have sewing skills and others (like Parsons) don’t. You don’t need to know how to sew and make patterns to get into Parsons & you’ll be able to learn it there.
Bruh I didnt directly apply to Parsons .... I first applied as an Liberal Arts student then internally transferred as a Parsons student because I knew they will likely accept me if I was already a New School student ..... and it worked .......
@@monochromelite I applied to the new school as an liberal arts student then when it was time , I transferred to Parsons .... It was easier to be accepted into Parsons because I was already a New School student compared to a student applying externally ......
@ilke gunay I applied for Design and Technology and yes I did need to submit an portfolio .... From what I can remember every Parsons student needs to send in a portfolio but of course call and ask to be sure ......
Is there a chance to get into Parsons Fashion Design program even without any knowledge of sewing and previous self-sewed clothes? Can we just send in sketches??? Please help!
Hey you can submit any type of art form in your portfolio and still choose fashion design as your major. You don't have to have any sewn pieces in your portfolio; however in my opinion, sketches alone won't be enough to get you into Parsons.
@@KarinaPlum heyyyy would u answer the question if I ask ?!?! Thanku if u see this I have a question I m not so gud at sewing , I just used to sew barbie's clothes, would it be oka for portfolio?! And is it OK if I don't know how to sew well and try in parsons
Hi, I am watching you from Turkey, which university has a good education and do you have a good career after graduation, such as working at Gucci, thank you in advance♥️
hi i’m not sure if you’ll see this but i want to major in fashion and also want to go to parsons but i haven’t gotten a chance to know how to sew since it’s expensive. would it be a problem that i don’t know ? i’m 17 abt to be a senior, and i only know drawing skills. and by chance if there’s someone who doesn’t know how to sew and wants to major in fashion do they teach you how to sew there, as a freshman/when u start attending? thank you! also amazing work !!
hi, yes they will teach you how to sew there almost like starting from the very beginning. There's many people here that don't know or aren't very good at sewing so you don't have to let that hold you back.
When can I start making my portfolio like I m determined to be a fashion designer tho I’m in 8th grade so can I like start it now or get inspiration. I know how to sew and stuff and I want to get into parsons without any cost so can I do it rn or wait and get more ideas?
@@KarinaPlum what should I do if I'm really into clothes/fashion but I don't want to make or sew them per say? I'm really stressed about deciding what I wanna do :(

So happy this was helpful & definitely get started as early as possible.

@@KarinaPlum thank you pretty!
im so confused the link she replied w of portfolio advice is saying “private”??
Can you explain a bit more about the essay? And did you get the fully scholarship or not!?
Thank you so much
Thank you queen
Ur work is amazingg congralation to you luvv 💕💕but what is tane prices? Could you tell us about that?
Are there no scholarships or budget places available there? Or in FIT only contract.

I'm not a fashion major but a cool idea could maybe be making clothing out of duct tape or trash bags? Or natural items you can get easily?
@@KarinaPlum do you know where I can find the fashion design portfolio requirements on the site?? I have looked EVERYWHERE and I haven’t seen anything.

Hey you can submit any type of art form in your portfolio and still choose fashion design as your major. You don't have to have any sewn pieces in your portfolio; however in my opinion, sketches alone won't be enough to get you into Parsons.
I’m also a high school senior and an international student and i don’t even know where to begin.
I know the whole process can be so intimidating, but just start by making art & lots of it!
@@KarinaPlum heyyyy would u answer the question if I ask ?!?! Thanku if u see this I have a question
I m not so gud at sewing , I just used to sew barbie's clothes, would it be oka for portfolio?! And is it OK if I don't know how to sew well and try in parsons
Nice dress bold and playful
So damn good 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Heyy, I'm an international student and I have questions... do I need a SAT score to apply? and how the GPA system works?
u don’t need an sat score to apply
Hi, I am watching you from Turkey, which university has a good education and do you have a good career after graduation, such as working at Gucci, thank you in advance♥️

hi, yes they will teach you how to sew there almost like starting from the very beginning. There's many people here that don't know or aren't very good at sewing so you don't have to let that hold you back.
Is it required that you make all your own patterns? Or can you work from a pattern you buy?
you can work from a bought pattern & manipulate it
Hi,had a question. As an international student,is it necessary to submit SAT scores?
You dont need a SAT score to aaply.
Wait, I'm confused. Did you make all that clothes by yourself? So if we want to give a portfolio we need to make our own clothes???
Yes I made the clothes for my portfolio but each school is different and some don’t require any sewn items so it just depends
hey, i was wondering if you are an international student or not. anyway, amazing work!♥️
are you applying?
When can I start making my portfolio like I m determined to be a fashion designer tho I’m in 8th grade so can I like start it now or get inspiration. I know how to sew and stuff and I want to get into parsons without any cost so can I do it rn or wait and get more ideas?
Start now it’s never too early! Keep up the ideas but they go nowhere if you don’t execute them
@@KarinaPlum aww thank u, ur really sweet
do we HAVE to sew items for PRATT? or can we just paint/draw
If I remember correctly, you don’t have to sew anything, but double check their requirements on their website to be sure
@@KarinaPlum what should I do if I'm really into clothes/fashion but I don't want to make or sew them per say? I'm really stressed about deciding what I wanna do :(
Maybe you can just make illustrations of designs.
Hi. Did you receive a scholarship from Parson to study for your bachelor's degree? If so, please tell me what kind of scholarship it is.
Yes I did, I talk a bit more about it in this vid th-cam.com/video/yklLXoOBmNI/w-d-xo.html
