Abstract
Most educators would agree that the development of creativity is a crucial part of an apparel design curriculum and an essential component in the success of students. Models provide a conceptual basis for creative thinking; therefore, further investigation of models from other disciplines provides new insight. In addition to models, students entering today's highly competitive apparel industry need divergent thinking strategies that can effectively assist in enhancing their creative output. This article presents a Conceptual Model of Creative Thinking in Apparel Design and creative thinking strategies to serve as a practical means for recognising, encouraging, and developing creative thinking abilities in apparel design students by increasing the applicability of theory in educational practices.
