1, study fee
First of all, it needs to be clear that if you study abroad, you can save money on your studies. High-quality noodle accessories, professional models and high-quality painting materials will take our works to a new level.
High-quality works are not only the guarantee of successful graduation, but most of the clothing visual works can be photographed and used to make job-seeking collections, which are effective for a long time and will not be thrown away after completion.
Especially in high-definition lens, the quality of clothing fabric texture is easy to expose. Therefore, if you can't find a high-quality substitute, don't be reluctant to spend money on learning.
The bulk of learning expenses is mainly tuition, and some schools have to pay registration fees in addition to tuition. Most European and American countries are famous for the high cost of books, but there are generally fewer books that need to be read through for fashion design majors. More often, teachers issue printed documents or students borrow or print books from the library according to books recommended by teachers or personal needs, which can save a sum of money for books.
But instead, it is the printing cost. Generally, if you can print at school, don't go to the printing shop outside to print and copy documents. The printing house outside is very expensive. Some supermarkets also have printers that can print and copy, which will be cheaper.
2, fabric accessories costs
Of course, the most important materials for learning fashion design are fabrics and accessories. Although all kinds of tools for making clothes look small, there are many kinds, which can cost a lot of money together.
And the fabric price is very wide, from IKEA's white and gray cloth to Paris's handmade lace fabric. The specific color, fabric category and color texture depend on the texture required by everyone's concept theme, so I won't summarize it here.
In addition to fabrics, common accessories include buttons, scissors (cloth scissors, paper-cut scissors, split scissors, lace scissors, etc. ), thread remover, elastic band, snap button, ordinary zipper, invisible zipper, powder pulling, iron frame, small hole, bead needle, thread opening, hat rope, lace top, etc.
It is best to prepare some fine straight cutting needles with good quality in the three-dimensional cutting course, which makes it easier to tie the table and operate a lot.
It is hard to avoid staying up late at home or even catching up on homework all night, so it is necessary to buy a home sewing machine and a personal desk.
Fashion design will inevitably take workshops such as painting, photography and fabric printing. Therefore, painting materials (paper, pigment, toner, brush, etc. ), dyes, paper printing pigments, fabric printing pigments, screen printing costs, hot steam printing costs, creative fabric materials, photographic equipment rental or buying your own camera is another expense.
Clothing, of course, can not be separated from modeling and modeling. Accessories such as shoes, socks, hats, model base clothes, and the cost of hiring models are also an expense. You can find a school student or classmate to help you every day, and you can't avoid using the brokerage model in the drama. You can let the school find a cooperative model agency. Some new models are willing to walk or return to the picture for you at a very low cost.
3, food, clothing, housing and transportation costs
The cost of living is similar to that in China, and it is inseparable from food, clothing, housing and transportation. The cost of restaurants abroad will be much higher, and the price of ordinary large supermarkets is acceptable. Milk, soda, meat and egg products are all cheap (except organic food, which is always much more expensive).
Renting a house requires you to find quality housing slowly. You can rent an ideal room very cheaply, and there are also expensive rooms with low cost performance. Generally speaking, the cost of renting a house abroad is similar to that in first-tier cities in China.
However, public transportation in Europe and America will be much more expensive than in China, and most people will choose to ride bicycles. The same goes for buying clothes. You can buy cheap discount goods from fast fashion brands or expensive designer brands, depending on your personal consumption level.
Not every country studying abroad burns money. Relatively speaking, famous art schools in popular countries such as Britain and America are located in central cities, such as London and new york. Like Beijing and Shanghai in China, prices are much higher. Of course, the tuition fees in these big countries are also very high.
Different geographical location, different national economic strength and different material conditions will all affect prices and expenses. Like Nordic countries, tuition may be cheap, but people's income is high and prices are high. The price level and consumption level of different cities in the same country are also different. For example, the overall price in Italy is cheap, but the price in Milan is relatively higher than that in Florence.
Generally speaking, Britain and the United States, the hottest countries for studying abroad, burn the most money, while Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium and other small language countries are cheaper. In Germany, a big manufacturing country, public schools are free of charge, with cheap prices and many subsidies.
