How do you get into fabric design?
I'm interested in making the patterns that go onto fabrics, not the actual fabrication of the material. Textile and Fiber Arts majors tend to focus on things like weaving, embroidery, color dying, etc, which I'm not interested in. I don't want to make the fabric or actually put patterns onto fabric, I want to design the patterns. What kind of degree is necessary to make the designs that go on fabrics, wallpaper, wrapping paper, homegoods, etc? If you were designing the fabric for a handbag, would you work for the design house brand that makes the bag, or would you work for some sort of fabric company that the designer would approach? I think graphic design would be somewhat related, and I've taken some classes in this, but most graphic design programs tend to involve a lot of things that wouldn't be related to fabric patterns such as advertising, fonts, page layout, etc.
I am a Fibers major and there are so many directions you can go into. Yes, weaving is incorporated, but you don't have to follow through on it. There are classes like Computer Aided Surface Design where you design your own patterns for different materials. (plates, upholstery, stationary, etc.) There are classes in repeat pattern design where you learn all different types of patterns and how to hand print them and how to create them and incorporate them on items through using a computer.
Fibers is definitely the major you are looking for. It is much more broad then what you've been told. Some of the classes that are required for my major are images on fabric, screen printing, repeat patter, computer aided surface design, computer aided woven design, textile rendering, digital textile printing, advanced computer aided surface design, and much more.
Those are just classes that relate to what you're interested in, there are many more options as well.
If you want to make a career out of this, Fibers is the major you want.
