Aspiring Fashion Designer Told To Gain Skill Through Practice
Fashion authorities of two leading colleges and a major dress manufacturer today offered advice to young people who want to become fashion designers.
Summed up, their advice was,
"Design for yourself and your circle
of friends, and you may find a
national market for your work."
This is the philosophy behind requirements for entries in a national competition to choose two winners of the Forest City Fashion Scholarships which provide full tuition grants for two years college study in dress and textile design. The competition, which closes March I, is open to high school seniors or graduates.
Originality, good taste, and fresh ideas in fashions key the standards by which student entries will be judged, according to rules developed cooperatively by Washington University's School of Fine Arts in St. Louis, the Rhode Island School of Design, Providence, and the scholarship sponsor, Forest City Manufacturing company of St. Louis.
"These standards," according to Simon Spitzer, vice president of Forest City, "are the same yard-sticks applied by professional designers to fashions created for millions of young people."
Students competing for the scholarship in dress design, to be given at Washington University, will submit sketches of original fashions fbcrclass, informal date, formal evening and lounge wear. Students competing for the scholarship in textile design, to be given at the Rhode Island school, will submit sketches of fabric, a modern printed drapery fabric, a modern to be woven into an upholstery fabric. Entrants must also submit a letter of recommendation from their high school principals.
Interested students may obtain details on the competition from the Forest City Manufacturing Co. 1641 Washington Blvd., St. Louis 3. Mo.
