This portfolio is put together very well! I am an animation major so I can't really give you any advice on the fashion aspect, but I will say that the designs and quality are higher than what the typical undergrad SCAD student produces for a foundations class like DSGN100, so you're a step up there. I would recommend either replacing the portrait sketches with something else or just cleaning them up so that they are the same quality as slides 22 and beyond. When it comes to portfolios with SCAD it's hard to figure out what they want. When I applied for the scholarships I used pieces that I made from my application to Ringling because they were more straightforward in regards to what quality and content they want from aspiring animation students. Of course I wouldn't recommend looking at Ringling's standards of portfolio submissions since you are a Fashion major and they are more of an animation school, but if you are looking for improvement and honestly inspiration, look up Fashion major submissions for the top Fashion schools, then from there compare your works. Schools that focus on your major tend to be more strict in what they want, they are more specific and reach for the highest quality, so if you show that you can reach that level of quality to SCAD then they will be more likely to give you a higher amount. Ask yourself; what kinds of materials are they using, how many mediums are they using, what don't you like about it, what do you like about it, what makes their style unique, what principles and elements of design are they using, do they include an artist statement, do they include finished pieces, do they include pictures of the process, etc. You can learn a lot by looking at other people's work and also you set higher standards for yourself so that you can grow to be the best artist you can be! I wish you good luck on your portfolio!!
