In order to allow as many students as possible to participate in the creation, Miss Li has divided the more than 120 people of leather design 08 and 09 into a number of design projects. Each project group is modeled by the general manager and design director.

And so on, the whole project group discussed the design plan and evaluated each other to study the best plan.

In the process of preparation, it is the most important to define design thinking, positioning and planning.

The students' works are inspired by creativity, and their unique charm has attracted many overseas customers to come to inquire.

The works were originally written by students, and they couldn't help but applause.

Customers from

Li and other 12 countries, they are right.

The fashion, uniqueness and market prospects of professional students' works have been highly evaluated.

Many enterprises and popular institutions signed a cooperation agreement with leather products professionals to discuss the production of orders and the development of new products, and a company's "reservation" leather design professional graduates.

Towards international

Confidence multiplied

Many students may think that the stage of students' works on the international footwear exhibition will be great, but this is not the first time that professional students have appeared on the stage of the international footwear industry.

Even students' works are only a small part of teachers' daily teaching content, or even one of the usual project courses, not a major project.

Reporters learned that the teachers in the daily course pay great attention to developing students' design thinking ability and innovative ability, and professional operation skills, and from time to time, introduce real activities such as design competitions, enterprise projects and international exhibitions to drive students to pform knowledge into products that are integrated with the market, so as to enhance students' professional ability and comprehensive quality.

Speaking of the trip to Germany, miss Li Guoli said that her vision was broader and more fully aware of the importance of international exchanges and cooperation.

Excellent leather designers should not only have creative and professional skills, but also have international vision, international vision and ability to adapt to internationalization, so that they can better serve the industry.

"This shoe exhibition has made a big step towards internationalization of students' works, and it is an encouragement for schools and students.

At the same time, we have strengthened our confidence in pushing students' works to the world.

Miss Li said.
