From the Publisher:

The world of the fashionista is brought to vivid life with 101 introductory lessons on such topics as how a designer anticipates cultural trends and “sees” the fashion consumer, the workings of the fashion calendar, the ways a designer collection is conceived, the manufacture of fabric, fashion illustration, and more.

Illustrated in the distinctly unique packaged style of the bestselling101 THINGS I LEARNED IN ARCHITECTURE SCHOOL, this new book on fashion design will be a perfect book for any fashion school wannabe, a recent graduate, or even a seasoned professional.

He is a faculty member at the renowned Parsons Institute / New School for Design.

My Review:
The 101 series of books are great.
Simple ideas that pack a “whollop”.
In 101 Things I Learned In Fashion School,
author Cabrera (with Matthew Frederick) explains basic skirt types,
primary colors, sewing techniques, and much 
much more.
Useful, easy to understand, handy dandy,
little hardcover book…
101 Things I Learned In Fashion School,
will have you strutt’n down the catwalk:-)
in no time at all.

  • I have not sewn in a long time. I made all of my formals and party dresses while I was in college and then sewned quite a few outfits for my daughter when she was little. I would love to get back into sewing as I am now medically retired. Please enter me into your giveaway.

    Thank you,
