Planned to build fashion awareness and perception for the 18–25 age group, this program consists of two main parts.

In the first part, participants are introduced to fundamental fashion knowledge, fashion concepts, style, and trends. Based on this foundation, they select a theme, create a moodboard and sketchbook, learn to recognize colors and build color palettes, and explore how colors are distributed within a collection. Participants research and apply fashion drawing techniques and creative collage methods, forming the building blocks of a mini collection.

After creating their mini collections by applying what they have learned, each student practices portfolio development techniques to showcase and present their work within a structured portfolio format.
