For your FP Final Project, you will gather all your writings into one document that integrates the separate parts you worked on over the semester.
Here is the order you should follow in this long essay:
Introduction
In 100-150 words, prepare your reader for what they're about to read. Detail the structure you will follow, and summarize your findings. For example:
The decade comprised between 1900 and 1910 was characterized by the optimism of the prosperity following the Industrial Revolution. The British Empire also opened the doors of Asia, and with it an appetite for Exoticism and novelty that found its way into fashion.
For our survey of the 1900s and its fashion, we will first look at salient historical and cultural events such as the Colonization, the birth of Feminism, and the Great Universal Exhibitions ushered changes in fashion, particularly in women fashion. We will then take a look at the mood and the values of the time, and how they translated in fashion. This will take us to an important event in the History Fashion, namely the rise of ‘fashion designers’ as we understand them today. We will take a close look at Paul Poiret, a Parisian who successfully captured the zeitgeist and catered to the aspirations of their clientele by offering his customers theatrical and exotic fashions. As we will see, Poiret channeled historical and international inspirations, such as an imagined Turkey and China.
Typically, an introduction does not present quotes from outside sources.
FP Research your 20th Century Decade
Write a short introductory sentence before copy-pasting your previous assignment. If your instructor pointed areas that needed further work, now would be a good time to patch things up. You SHOULD insert a title before this section to tell your reader that your introduction is complete and they are now starting the 'meat' of the research. You should also add a short conclusive sentence before moving to the next section. Here are examples of a title, an introductory sentence, and a conclusive sentence for a section:
1900s: The apparent calm before the storm
Under a smooth veneer of gentile prosperity, the period often called "The Long Edwardian Summer" was merely putting a straight face on a series important historical, cultural, and societal changes.

As we can see, a closer look at this peaceful moment in history had its share of upheavals and transformations.
If you are quoting from outside sources (which I hope you are!), make sure to quote them in your footnotes!
FP Values in Fashion
Again, you will already have made some progress on this over the semester, and you might have to brush up a few facts here and there to tidy up your report as a coherent paper. Remember that you are trying to tell your reader how the historical circumstances dictated what people wore. A 'value' can be the rise of the automobile, the revolt against a corrupt government, or something as trivial as people starting to go to the gym! Once again, create a title for this section, an introductory sentence, and a conclusive sentence. If you are quoting from outside sources (which I hope you are!), make sure to quote them in your footnotes!
FP Profile Key Designer
This section will present your Key Designer. If you can, try and reinforce the coherence of your paper by exposing how the historical events you mentioned in your first section impacted your designer. Remember to insert pictures of your designer's work and a head shot (if available). Once again, create a title for this section, an introductory sentence, and a conclusive sentence. If you are quoting from outside sources (which I hope you are!), make sure to quote them in your footnotes.
FP Historical Influence
In there, you should tell us how fashion history always inspires contemporary fashion, and how your Key Designer is no exception. If you must demonstrate a direct historical influence in a collection that you did NOT mention in your Key Designer Profile, then make sure to include pictures of both the historical influence and the collection. Once again, create a title for this section, an introductory sentence, and a conclusive sentence. If you are quoting from outside sources (which I hope you are!), make sure to quote them in your footnotes.
Conclusion
Another 100 words to summarize your findings, connecting your decade historical events and values, with its fashion and your iconic designer(s). A title is optional and most conclusions do not contain outside sources or quotes since you are summarizing your own analysis.
FP Bibliography
Remember to update your bibliography if you found any new sources while working on this essay!
While this essay consists of parts that you worked on over the semester, it will be longer and more coherent than a simple collection of copy-pasted bits. Give yourself at least a week to work on this, and make sure to have proof-readers to help you: you might miss the forest for the trees!
This essay should also addresses any feedback you received from your instructor over the semester, from spelling mistakes to areas that need further research to sources that need quotation. Remember that this essay is worth 10% of your grade for the semester: this is the difference between an A and B! ...........
