Fashion File was E-VER-Y-THING!!!
This is kind of eerie and bitter sweet to watch, but the best McQueen Doc I've seen.

Tips and Tricks: 2012/13 F.I.T (AAS Fashion Design) Portfolio Requirements
Some of my info is a little dated. I see F.I.T. shortened the requirements A LOT from when I applied.
I may add to it more if I think of anything, but I'm just throwing out a few ideas for you all working with the new requirements.
If you have any questions, leave them in the comments:)
--also, I added a Google translator, hopefully if you need it, it will work for you.

On F.I.T.'s Portfoilio changes
I realize F.I.T. has changed some things since I applied, I did address it in the comments sections of some of the posts.
However, I can assume the bulk of it is still the same. If you have any questions though, leave it in the comments and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

Top Reasons F.I.T. can (and will) REJECT your portfolio
1. Poorly Constructed Garment Test
I define poorly constructed in a couple of ways. The first comes down to bad sewing, jagged seams, an outfit that just doesn't make sense etc. It can also be something extremely generic.
I posted this at number 1 because I believe F.I.T. values sewing skills more than sketching if you are applying for to their Fashion Design Apparel Concentration course. My sketching has always been pretty good, and I got rejected TWICE for having a shitty garment test.
You also have to be careful that you don't try to sew something that's clearly beyond your skill.
2. Novice sketches.
F.I.T. does allow computerized sketching, if you are not an artist and your strength is more in sewing, I'd suggest you take advantage of this just to have clean looking drawings.
Stuff that doesn't really matter after the jump
