But Simon Collins,the dean of fashion at Parsons―the new school for design,said even though technology is helpful, there is still no substitute for talent and hard work. "Absolutely,there'll be people out there that have successful businesses that don,t know the first thing about draping(剪裁) and construction,just think it up,put it on the computer,fire it off the factory and it works," Collins said.
