Application
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to contribute to the development of preliminary garment design concepts where the design challenge is quite specific or limited in nature. Examples may be where garments have a limited number of design features, where fabrics to be used are quite stable or where an existing design is being modified.
This unit applies to individuals working in design and production roles as a member of a team and under the guidance of others.
No licensing or certification requirements exist at the time of publication. Relevant legislation, industry standards and codes of practice within Australia must be applied.
