Fashion Inspired by Art

In this project, 7th graders developed basic skills in determining and drawing the proportions of the human figure and face in order to create “self portrait” paper dolls. To inspire the fashion, each student chose an art style out of a hat and did some research on the art and artists involved in the movement. Students even included tabs on their garments to keep them on their paper dolls!
