An innovative approach to the formation of design and compositional thinking of students, their skills of practical work in the design process - the embodiment of creative ideas in the material on the example of clothing models (costumes) different in the system of formation and range based on ethnocultural traditions, is revealed. Nowadays Ukrainian fashion designers’ creativity is difficult to imagine without folklore and ethnic orientation. The cultural heritage of each nation has always been a source of inspiration for fashion designers. Usage of modern technologies of ethnic clothing in various techniques makes it possible to develop a modern, stylish and competitive range, creating both ready-to-wear industrial collections and author's, exclusive collections that express the idea of transferring Ukrainian national ornament to modern European costume design. Successful advancement in the formation of future designers' professional skills is possible by identifying the complex impact of all aspects of national culture along with the method of teaching the discipline «Model Making» is based on a combination of technical aspects of studying material and techniques of the artistic and figurative approach of ethnocultural images. Considerable attention should be paid to teaching methods and projects based on materials of national culture, taking into account the specifics of different regions of our country.

It is necessary to form complex programs, the target projects of which involve both scientists, designers and heads of public and private enterprises and employees. All mentioned above can significantly strengthen scientific ties, promote the implementation of developments in production, develop ethnodesign, represent Ukrainian brands with dignity in foreign countries. Key words: teaching methods, work in material, ethnodesign, art-project preparation, formation of skills.
