Fashion 101 is a hands on training course taught by celebrity wardrobe

stylist Cory Savage.  This course serves as a way for aspiring

wardrobe stylist to dive, head first, into the the world of

Professional/Celebrity Wardrobe Styling. Our courses come agency

recommended and are often a preliminary requirement in be able to be

considered on their Agency, Wardrobe Asst. Roster. Our Fashion 101

course is broken down into a 3 part series of classes:

Day 1: Fashion 101

Cory's expertise in color and style coordination, wardrobe placement

for commercial print advertising, fashion photography shoots, film and

television projects and personal consulting are incorporated into

the Fashion 101 course curriculum covered in the Part I of the course

series.   During this course, students will learn about a typical work

environment on a television, film, commercial or music video set. You

will learn how to read scripts and look at storyboards to determine

what wardrobe items are required and how to procure them within the

budget. Students leave versed on the ins and outs of the professional

wardrobe stylist's day to day.

Day 2: Styling

In Part II of the course series, each student will be given a male and

female client, i.e, model, celebrity, actor, musician etc. We will

discuss styling concepts and learn to facilitate a styling concept by

shopping at fashion and costume houses, clothing stores and public

relation firms. Students will become familiar with these advertising

agencies, catalog publishers, fashion houses  and public relations

firms and learn exactly how to get in contact and conduct business

with each.

Fashion stylists must have a good eye for things that look "hot and

new" and be aware of fashion trends. They also need to enjoy shopping

(and returning items) and be resourceful and detail oriented. This is

where you will get to experience all of this first hand and see if

you've got what it takes to make it all come together.

Day 3: Photo Shoot

Fashion 101 sets up an editorial fashion shoot with professional

photographers, models and hair and makeup artists to apply the styling

concepts learned and practiced in Part I and Part II of the course

series. This day consists of an on location shoot with your focuses on

honing your talent and on-the-spot styling inspiration. All photos

shot on Day 3 will be available for use in your portfolio upon

completion of  the course.

Space is limited for each Series (we limit the class size to 4 students)
