| On June 14, design works by 2014 graduates from Sino-French IFA School of Fashion Design (SFESFD) were ceremoniously staged at the hall of multi-functional performance on the third floor of art building. The participants of the show included SUES president Ding Xiaodong, vice president Shi Jianyong, Gu Siming, Chairman of Trust Board of Sino-French cooperative educational program, Chai Liwei, head of SFESFD on the French side, Zhou Xiaoming, head of SFESFD on the Chinese side as well as many parents of the graduating students, all of whom packed the whole hall.
In their graduation design works, the students approached the theme of “modern legacy” with cultural imagination, poetic technology, and fresh vitality plus the use of language of clothing. Actually students were required by the school to convey their personal ideas and design individualistic garments to lead the fashion trend based on their own interpretation of the subject. The graduation design works display served as an evaluation of what students have learned after four years of college study, showcasing the teaching achievement of integrating art, technology, and market. In the atmosphere of fashion, all the audience feasted their eyes on the original creations by graduates. After the performance, 10 top graduates were awarded prizes by the school, with president Ding Xiaodong, vice president Shi Jianyong, Gu Siming, chairman of the trust board, Chai Liwei, head of SFESFD on the French side, Zhou Xiaoming, head of SFESFD on the Chinese side conferring certificates of honor to the winners, and encouraging them to establish their own fashion brands and trends in their future career. It’s been nearly 11 years since SUES’s IFA was co-founded between SUES and Paris Fashion Association Education Group International Fashion Institute, successfully completing the first-phase collaboration. Led by the teaching philosophy of “Integrating art, technology and market”, SFESFD has, actively introducing superior French fashion teaching resources and closely following the trend of international fashion design, organically combined western fashion design concepts, artistic styles, and advanced processing technology with traditional costume culture full of rich oriental colors. Moreover, with advanced scientific fashion teaching system and innovative “3D-2D-3D”fashion teaching model, SFESFD has cultivated its own talented students by giving full play to the specialized advantage and professional background of faculty members on both sides constantly keeping pace with the top international brands. With the launch of the second phase of cooperative running, IFA will be dedicated to turning out more first-class talented fashion designers with a combination of international vision, unique personality and creativity, thus adding more talents to the development of China’s top fashion industry.
