F.I.T FASHION DESIGN ADMISSIONS PORTFOLIO // HOLA PAOLA 

Bitchhh I need to get into Fit it’s my dream school 😩❤️

Thank you so much I am a junior I have been really wanting to go to FIT because I do believe that is the school for me. Your fashion artwork is amazing but thank you for the advice.

You help so freaking much i pray i get accepted for the fall term

this scares me, I’m a junior and I’m terrified to see how I end up achieving all this 😭

I'm only in 6th grade and I already started on this!

Can you do a portfolio digitally or does it have to be hand drawn by any chance? I’m better when it comes to digital drawing and find it easier to color drawings.

just wanted to come back and thank you so so much, I got accepted in the fashion design program for fall 22 and u cleared up so much stuff I was confused about !

This was so discouraging for me :(

Paola! I am looking to apply, and I’m happy you said you’re from Florida. I live in Orlando right now! How did you go about applying for tuition/financial aid? Not many of these videos talk about how they paid for school lol

omg girl thnk you so so much!!!! I just started looking at colleges and am freaking out over what is needed for portfolios but this was so helpful. I hope I can go there!! Also you are soooo talented!!

QUESTION! Does the “artwork” have to match your sewing garments/ or did you match them two together

Where do you get the fabric from?

Thank you for this video it was sooo helpful

Hey very nice video. I have a question, does the school give the students books for classes or any material for the beginning?

WORLDAASS NEWS.FIT KEEP EVERY 2 WEEK FIT FASHIO SHOW. SELL TICKETS $25. KEEP IN YOU AUDITORIUM. GET THE KIDS TO DESIGN FOR IT,PLUS SELL TICKETS IN MANHATTAN.CLARENCE A WHITE.

Strenth point was really great advice with your work too 🤟

Omg you did so well I loved this video ... Wonder how things are going ...

what do i study in highschool to get int fit? can i study commerce then join school of art and design in fit

hey, ik it’s a bit late but just lyk that the music is quite loud and could be distracting

I'm interested in this but my drawing skills are not the best. Do you have to know how to draw to do the portfolio?

Your so pretty I love your hair and your makeup

How did u color the texture ?

Huge help!!!

I have a question to ask. Did you study a design school before entering F.I.T ?😀

Thank you so much I needed this 🤞🏾

Gorgeous girl 💁 and I love the faux loc braids suits you so well and the colour 😭😍

This is the best advice ever, I'm so thankful I found your channel. I was low-key a scared for the sewing project portion of the portfolio but thanks to you I can find ways to complete it and look good. Thanks for the suggestions(:

I just decided to apply and I have until February 1st. This is going to be a lot

Can u tell the standard question for portfolio....Are they standard questions or different for each, how long they give time to make a portfolio?

Im applying next month, this helped so much!!

I love your hair!! but i have a question... i have a 2.5 GPA do you think that will hold me back from getting in?

If I want to go for fashion merchandising, do I need a portfolio?

Hi! May I send you my essay to be read over? And also, how do u make ur outfit see thru coloring look so good? 😩❤️❤️What techniques do u use? Like for example at 8:41

Hey new sub here, how big is your portfolio and where to get them?

Can the designs be done digitally? Or does everything have to be done traditionally and scanned?

So did you use markers or colored pencils? Also, what did you draw the pieces on? The material seems very hard

PROUD OF YOU!

I love your designs I’m going to do a Italy mood board for the mix and match designs is that a good idea?

how were you able to make the designs so realistic? what did you use?

Hi, i know you posted this really long back, but i just rlly had a doubt, do i need to draw the croquis by hand or can i do it digitally too? Thankyou so much for the video and your time :)

I notice that for the mix and match designs, you only included two fabric swatches, for the green pants and the top. Do you not need to add the swatches for the other garments?

Thank you so much. This was so helpful

Hi Paola! thanks so much for making this video! I wanted to know, why is the black background favored?

I have to apply later this year/next year (I'm a junior but I want to grad early) and this has helped so much

omg... don't know if you will see this i am a little late but how did you make the pieces look see through in your drawings?

pls how many years is the bachelors fashion design course

So the second part of project is design four different clothing ?

What are the measurements that the swatches and design have to be

Thank you so much keep it up 🙂

Girl u helped me sooo much thank u for making this video I was so confused to what a portfolio even was

Where did you learn to do this before applying? Did u go to a fashion HS?

Hey, I was wondering for the portfolio do you actually have to physically construct (make each garment) that you drew? How did you go about doing that? Did you make physical garments of those four dresses? I’m asking because I’m trying to decide whether or not I am applying for the Fashion Design major or a Textiles Major

Girlll your entire aestheticcc 😍 😍

Hi, I am also applying for the fashion design program at FIT and Parsons, I am wondering what the blackboard was, where your designs were places? Also for the mood board, what support/structure should I put it on? Thank You!

I Newbie here, this is my first seen Hola Paola video, and I love your intro so much!! bless you (:

Hey! I had a question, what colors did you use to color your designs?

I want to go to uniiiiiii

Thanks so much for this vid! Do you live on-campus or off? Which would you recommend?

Pls did u sketch those with hand or use computer??

We just got our son to school, and now it's our daughter's turn. I came to loathe the "The Essays that got me into Harvard, Yale, Stanford...." videos. First the kids had no idea what role the essays played in the process. It may have been more important that they were a woman applying to a physics department that currently was 75% male. Or maybe it was they planned to continue their study of cello along side being seen English major, and the school orchestra was graduating 4 cellists. There are so many factors in the process, factors you students have no control over, that it's hard to tell what made or possibly broke the deal. All that said, this was a well put together video. You were very humble, and nothing in your portfolio was earthshaking. What it was, though, was mature. You had a plan, and you stuck to it. You were prepared to both show and discuss every piece of the portfolio. It was comprehensive and thoughtfully assembled. Thank you, I'll make sure my daughter watches.

Do you have to present most of the time??

Hi Paola! thanks for posting this video, it was super helpful! I did want to ask during the portfolio process (where you had to illustrate original design work) did you already have the fabric swatches before you created your designs, or did you first create the designs and later bought the fabrics? Again, thanks for this video :)

where did you get fabric swatches?

Pao that mood board thoooo. 😭😭😭

Hey can you help me out and please answer my questions, I'd be so so thankful! ❤ - 1) how do we have to send our portfolio? In person or digitally? Coz im from Sweden and I wanna apply to FIT and also how can students apply from abroad? 3) where can I find all the questions and tasks for the fashion design major that we need to do in order to get in? 2) does FIT give scholarship to international students? 3) Do we have to give an interview in person before we get in coz I don't live in new york so do I have to travel over there just to give an interview in person in order to get in? 4) do they send acceptance email if we do get in? And how to send all the money? 5) I took Arts stream for my 11th and 12th grade ( which had subjects like geography, English, history, political science, fine arts, multimedia and fashion designing) so I didn't have math and I wanna apply to go to FIT next year so I will have to give my SAT exam and since I didn't have math, my scores in SAT for math and science probably won't be good so will I still have chances to get in FIT even if my sat exam score is low? Is SAT exam necessary? . I know its really long but im just looking for some answers and wanna be sure before apply. I REALLY HOPE YOU REPLY, THANKS 🙏❤

Can you use photographs of fabrics instead of actual swatches?
