For the start of the 2022 school year, ESMOD is launching a Meta-Wear class dedicated to digital fashion design. This class will focus on developing the skills of future Digital Fashion Designers specialized in Metaverse and NFT.

Since the inception of the Metaverse, the fashion industry’s digital revolution has been amplified as it explores virtual spaces that offer ready-to-wear and luxury brands an ever increasing artistic potential. As NFTs, valuable objects in the Metaverse, attract a new audience of connected and influential consumers, they also generate considerable career opportunities for young designers who master digital design tools.

It is with this in mind that ESMOD is launching a Meta-Wear class dedicated to digital fashion design. Positioned in the 2nd year of the “Fashion Designer” undergraduate program, this Meta-Wear class will offer a hybrid program focused on Creative Design, Technical Design and the challenges of virtual fashion.

The training will focus on the development of collections and universes using leading digital design tools such as CLO 3D, BLENDER, MAYA, DAZ3D… but without neglecting the technical aspect with “physical” pattern making courses to better understand the volumes and construction of 3D garments. In addition to the creative and technical approach to fashion products, core courses will place virtual design in a commercial context. These courses will also address the history and current events of fashion and gaming.

At the end of this program, students will enter one of the 3rd year specializations at the end of which they will have the opportunity to present a complete virtual collection thesis project.

An Opportunity for New Career Paths

By choosing the Meta-Wear class, our students choose to invest in the foreseeable future by optimizing their skills in the digital field and by developing their intuition and creative sensibility to develop bridges between physical and digital fashion. They will be able to access new and highly sought after professions such as Digital Fashion Designer, Creative & Technical Designer, 3D Product Designer, 3D Pattern Maker, NFT Designer, Video Game Fashion Designer…

By initiating this Meta-Wear class, ESMOD is betting on the future of the Metaverse and NFTs by offering an exclusive training program that meets the needs of an industry in search of more and more specialized professionals. In addition, in 2023, we’ll also be offering a short 5-month Metaverse program to professionals wishing to develop skills in digital design.
