ABOUT DECÖ  DECÖ is the World Fashion Council's professional education counter-part.  Our workshops are in high demand because they are taught by industry and educational professionals (many traveling from the best fashion education programs in the US such as Parsons, Pratt & FIT). We restrict enrollment in each of its classes to provide an intimate learning environment and ensure that each of our students has the opportunity to learn, grow and succeed in the field of fashion.

This reflects our educational philosophy, our personal commitment to our students and our ongoing efforts to reclaim the role of professional training, apprenticeships and real-world learning in fashion education. In addition to exciting member workshops such as the Fashion Stylist Workshop Certificate and our Fashion Trend-Forecasting Certificate we also offer a Fashion Sewing Workshop Series and a Fashion Illustration Workshop Series. At request, a certificate of workshop completion is available upon completion of all workshops. 

 ADDITIONAL OPPORTUNITIES OF INTEREST INCLUDE:

(1) Our top member program: the Fashion Incubator Program

(2) Our special fashion portfolio workshops (a favorite for those preparing to apply to the best fashion colleges and universities in the world).

(3)  Our new online Fashion Stylist and Fashion Trend Forecasting Certificates, which makes our member workshops available internationally and to World Fashion Council members wherever they might be. 

(4) Our unique one-on-one training and consulting for designers who are just starting are and who are gearing up to participate in the next Fashion Week.

(5)  Membership in the World Fashion Council and the opportunities for community, networking and professional development that membership opens.

LOCATIONS:   

In addition to our regular schedule of online workshops and workshops in Fairfield County Connecticut, in 2009 we will also begin offering a regular schedule of workshops and classes in the Hartford-Springfield Massachusetts area and we will be introducing a regular schedule of workshops in the San Francisco Bay area beginning with a special fashion illustration workshop series taught by the award winning fine artist and fashion illustrator Kiril Hristov.  In addition to his numerous awards and shows throughout Europe and North America, Mr. Hristov has also taught fashion illustration courses in both the New York and San Francisco area (including his current teaching at FIDM and the Art Institute of San Francisco).
