She is from Donghua University, Raffles School of international design. She is only three years old. She is only 21 years old. However, she won the two awards in the sixteenth China Cup International Women's dress design competition. She became the most popular and award-winning designer.

She is the protagonist of our period, Shen Yiwen.

This time, let's join this new generation of fashion star to explore how the Raffles College of Donghua University has successfully developed fashion designers.

Background: International Clothing Design Star recognized by professional events

As the first international professional competition in China, the "China Cup" has been recognized and recognized internationally, professionally, authoritative and internationally.

Among them, the design of women's wear is always the most difficult and the most competitive battleground.

In July 29, 2010, the sixteenth China Cup International Women's dress design competition finals and awards were held in Keqiao Textile City of Shaoxing, China.

Shen Yiwen's first competition was designed by his works of "the great country of the Qing Dynasty" with an international demeanor trend. He was designed with four amazing performances. With his strong performance, the professional judges and audience saw the increasingly internationalized standard and talent of the "new generation of fashion designers".

The theme of the "China Cup" is "discovery and Expo color". From the perspective of "beautiful city and beautiful country", Shen Yiwen takes the black and white as the main color, and designs the Oriental Pearl in gorgeous women's clothing. He hopes to promote Shanghai and promote China with Shanghai elements. At last, she uses her own "Qing Guo Qing Cheng" series to realize the "dumping of the country".

In 2010, the "China Cup" received more than 1000 design works from more than 10 countries including France, Japan and Italy, covering women's clothing, men's wear, children's wear, underwear / beach and other categories.

At present, it is on display in Keqiao Textile City of Shaoxing, Zhejiang, and will be on display in October this year with the winning works of other groups in Shanghai, World Expo, Ireland Pavilion, 2010.

From childhood to realization

Shen Yiwen is from Ningbo, Zhejiang. She is a soft spoken, delicate voice girl. She loved drawing and watching fashion show from childhood. She dreamed that one day she could become the leading role in fashion show.

So in 2003, with the support of his parents, Gao chose the "fashion leader" of the domestic fashion design profession -- the Department of fashion design, Donghua University Raffles International Design Institute.

She expressed great pleasure in winning such a prize for her first race. She said that it was inseparable from school training and teacher's teaching. Recently, she learned that she had won the Ordifen Cup 2010 China underwear design competition rematch, and will start preparing for the new round of competition in mid 9 this year.

In these years, three things have impressed her most.

Senior foreign teacher is the guide for students.

First of all, Shen Yiwen talked about the skills of costume design.

She says that you can definitely learn an enviable professional skill at the Raffles College of Donghua University, and you can learn the enviable professional skills, and when you design and make your own ready-made garment, you can't describe it in terms of your sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.

Donghua University experienced Raffles College experienced foreign teachers are good at starting from the foundation and practicality, for students to get to the successful designer on the road of "Ren Du two pulse".

The teacher's patience and teaching also impressed Shen Yiwen deeply.

She recalled that at the very beginning, she was not very good at sewing, but she was afraid of sewing. But her experience and enthusiasm gave her the greatest encouragement and confidence, and convinced her that she could completely overcome the small obstacles on this successful road. Finally, she succeeded in doing so.

In addition, the foreign teachers also encouraged students to take part in the competition. This time, under the recommendation of Julia Shepitko and Dilip Kumar Mothiram teacher, Shen Yiwen tried to participate in such a contest for the first time, but she won the prize in one fell swoop.

This also fully reflects that the Raffles College of Donghua University has always adhered to the mode of training talents: to emphasize competition and cooperate with international famous enterprises.

Strong learning atmosphere, promote mutual encouragement and progress

In terms of time arrangement, Shen Yiwen thought that he also gained a lot.

She said: "learning is busy, the competition also needs to put a lot of energy into it."

But these years, in the school's study, oneself already can arrange the time reasonably.

At the same time, because of the good learning atmosphere among students, everyone can make progress together in the competition.

Raffles's professional equipment in Donghua is also open to students all day long. Sometimes, teachers will "advise" students to take an early rest and not to do it too late.

International background for improving English environment

Finally, Shen Yiwen said that not only did he gain professional knowledge, but also improved his English level. Now speaking fluent English is no longer a problem, which will make preparations for becoming an international fashion designer in the future.

At first, she was worried about English, and was afraid of affecting the efficiency of listening.

But this worry was solved at the beginning of the school, and the school took full account of it.

In the first semester of the two semester, students are equipped with classroom plation, especially for some special terms of clothing to explain, eliminating the worries of students.

According to the students' different English foundation, the school will arrange different classes of teachers and courses to educate students in English.

In this process, students can gradually understand the terminology of foreign teachers and adapt to the teaching styles of foreign teachers.

Shen Yiwen believes that the school's initiative not only gives students a pitional period, but also avoids students' psychological dependence.

Raffles College of Donghua University adopts the mode of "all English teaching and graded English training". It not only teaches students to master the professional skills of traditional fashion design, but also trains students to adapt to the changing market demand, technology development and trend.

Foreign teachers' unique teaching methods make the classroom full of interactive links. Students can form a deeper understanding of fashion design through practical courses. Under the guidance of teachers, students can gradually form their own style by constantly improving their own design works.

Shen Yiwen's dream is to become a fashion designer representing China and set up his own studio.

Let's express our best wishes to her. At the same time, we hope that all the students of the Department of fashion design of the Donghua University Raffles International Design Institute can go higher and farther on the broad stage of dress design, and move forward to their dreams at their new starting points.
