The "Digital Fashion Design: Teaching and Learning for a Sustainable Future" project aims to enhance the learning experience for students at UIUC by integrating CLO 3D, cutting-edge 3D fashion design software, into our university's Fashion Concentration in Studio Art. The introduction of this tool will provide a transformative opportunity in our educational offerings, exposing students to emerging tools that emphasize design solutions prioritizing sustainable design from the very inception of fashion creation. Further, this project will develop and implement “Zero Waste” workshops to engage the campus in collaborative projects centered around responsible design and waste reduction in fashion.

This proposal directly funds:
1. CLO 3D Software Licenses
2. Software Training
3. Poster Printing
4. Student Intern Wages
5. Workshop Supplies
