Return to: USC Roski School of Art and Design
The combined minor in Fashion recontextualizes the idea of fashion in an interdisciplinary and collaborative manner with elective options in fashion studies, wearable production, smart fabrics, costuming, dance and movement, media and culture, business entrepreneurship and marketing.
- ACAD courses introduce students to the ideas of extended reality and interactive design with leading-edge technologies using smart fabrics and wearable electronics; IDSN courses further explore areas of the global fashion system via business design, market research and ambient computing.
- ART, DES and FDN courses ground students in art and design foundations, allowing advanced focus on fashion design theory, issues of identity and visual representation.
- BAEP and BUAD courses provide students with tools to create new products, new business ventures and new worlds.
- DANC courses allow students to dive deeper into the relationship between fashion and performance, including points of intersection with choreography, corporeality, identity and theatricality. Grounded in embodied experimentation, students in these courses will be encouraged to experiment with fashion as the critical site at which the body meets world.
- THTR classes teach students to build personal brands using the principles of costuming and the hands-on fabrication methods of a theatrical costume shop that span the worlds of musical theatre, superheroes, sports and fashion influencers, shaping identity and creating characters.
The minor also serves as a gateway to two progressive degree options, Roski’s MFA in Fashion and Iovine and Young Academy’s MS in Fashion Innovation For more information about these options, please consult with the appropriate departmental adviser. The total number of units for the minor is 24.
