Well I went to the appointment with the womenswear course coordinator yesterday, but she wasn’t there so another one of her colleagues talked with me, and I’m kinda glad she was there instead, cause she was younger and more understanding. So I told her my concern of how I felt like I belonged in the second year on the course instead of the first and then she looked through my portfolio….. She said I was really strong in construction but my designs were old, what exactly that means I’m not quite sure. She also said that I needed to work on my fashion design cause it was too theatrical. Both of those comments were unsettling, but she went on to say that everyone comes in with different strengths and weaknesses and my strength in construction would give me an advantage over those you aren’t as skilled in that area and would ultimately help me turn out a better product.
Well she also told me some of the concept we would be learning about in class this term, so I felt a little better about the decision and she also said she would look into possible ways for me to get ahead, as possible transferring into a higher program or something like that, which she had done herself. But this is how I’m going to look at, I’m coming into this first year with a huge advantage, where if I had gone into the second year I would have been some what behind. With this advantage I plan to really impress my professors and aim to become “that” student, the one everyone knows about!
