THIS SPRING OUR DESIGNERS WILL BE DESIGNING AND MAKING A DRAWSTRING TOP. THIS TOP WILL BE THE HIT OF THE SUMMER NO MATTER WHERE YOU WEAR IT!
Our students (Fashion Designers) start with the sketch (croquis), technical details, choosing and rendering the fabric, learning the proper way to make a pattern, including measuring each other, understanding the importance of this process and the fit of the garment. They learn how to pin and sew using a sewing machine. Then they sew the entire garment including the final fitting. Finally, on the last session of our class, we hold our Fashion Show, where you can show off the outfit that you designed and made yourself to your family and friends!
