Reference from Ken Goh (attended Portfolio
Preparation course)
From being just a 'Guy-Next-Door' to 'The Next Top International
Fashion Designer' might sound like something almost impossible
or
perhaps
the 'Biggest Joke' to almost everyone over here in Singapore...
especially
considering the size of our local fashion and textile sector...
but, I
realised this may be possible - to turn my dream into reality
- when I
discovered a gifted educator, Milica!
Although having spent only 8 lessons with Milica in a period
of less then a
month, her patience, guidance and professionalism, plus words
of
encouragement and perceptive advice were enough to open myself
to
artistic knowledge and bring more confidence to me. Now,
I can imagine
becoming a successful fashion designer ( hopefully 'The Next
Top
International Fashion Designer' one day!). As time went by
, I witnessed my
progress through pencil sketching and later, collage presentations.
It was
a great improvement in both my fashion illustration and presentation
skill,
(my weakest area when I was pursuing Diploma in Fashion Design
at the
poli)
Taking one step closer to my dream, I designed my personal
portfolio -
previous creations together with the sketches and collage
presentations I
did under the guidance of Milica. This was a part of my entrance
interview
for
BA(HONS) in Fashion Design at NAFA (Nanyang Academy Of Fine
Arts),
School of Fashion Studies. My interviewers were impressed
by the way I
presented my portfolio, and they appreciated collage presentations
taught
by
Milica.
