去國外的服裝設(shè)計專業(yè)并不是我們想象中設(shè)計日常的服裝，他們主要設(shè)計的潮流服裝，在日常生活中我們基本穿不到的服裝。
美國大學(xué)服裝設(shè)計專業(yè)學(xué)以培養(yǎng)學(xué)生人文素質(zhì)與表達服裝設(shè)計創(chuàng)作之專業(yè)技術(shù)與能力為教育目標(biāo)，透過作品競賽、展演等創(chuàng)作驗證發(fā)展個人特質(zhì)與設(shè)計創(chuàng)作力，同時為服飾產(chǎn)業(yè)人才需求以及擴展學(xué)生就業(yè)空間，分別規(guī)劃設(shè)計、經(jīng)營企劃、生產(chǎn)管理、織品設(shè)計等專業(yè)輔助選修課程，為服飾產(chǎn)業(yè)培育全方位之專業(yè)人才。目前中國的服裝行業(yè)里，專門從事服裝行業(yè)的人不在少數(shù)，但是懂服裝行業(yè)的人卻很少，普遍缺乏高素質(zhì)的專業(yè)人才，是中國服裝行業(yè)的一個顯著特點，同時也反映出了在這方面的專業(yè)教育資源的短缺。本文與大家一起分享的是去美國留學(xué)學(xué)服裝設(shè)計專業(yè)情況。
