Esmod to launch a 5-month Metaverse programme in 2023

The Meta-wear class will be positioned in the second year of the fashion designer undergraduate programme. 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.

Students of the class will be able to access new and highly sought after professions such as digital fashion designer, creative and technical designer, 3D product designer, 3D pattern maker, NFT designer, and video game fashion designer.

The Meta-wear class will be open to students who have completed the first year of Esmod’s fashion designer programme (starting in September 2022) as well as to students who have completed a fashion design programme at another school looking to transfer (starting in September 2023), and who have a special interest in the gaming world. At the end of this programme, students will enter one of the 3rd year specialisations at the end of which they will have the opportunity to present a complete virtual collection thesis project.
