A portfolio shows what you can do. A launched collection shows who you are. This is the moment where your training, talent, and ambition converge into a singular, powerful statement.

Welcome to the ultimate capstone experience at CFA. Launch Your First Collection is more than just a final course—it is a guided, real-world simulation of creating and launching a fashion brand from the ground up. It’s here that the principles of Design, Sourcing, and Marketing Mastery are put into practice, challenging you to synthesize every skill you’ve learned to take a personal vision from a simple sketch to a sold-out product.

This hands-on course will guide you step-by-step through the entire launch process:

• Conceptualize & Design: Develop a powerful concept and design a cohesive, market-ready collection that reflects your unique point of view.

• Source & Produce: Navigate the complexities of the global supply chain, managing sampling and production to bring your physical garments to life.

• Brand & Market: Build a compelling brand narrative, direct a professional photoshoot, and execute a digital marketing campaign that captivates your target audience.

• Launch & Sell: Master the business of fashion, from pricing and e-commerce setup to the logistics of a successful launch day.

This is not a final exam; it is the first day of your career. Your brand starts now.
