Beginner - Intermediate Level
Fashion Design is more than sketching on paper. Creativity and Technique go hand in hand!

🔸This course can be auto-scheduled by choosing my available time slots.
🔸This course meets 4 times.

This is a multi day live online class, which will cover the areas necessary to begin your fashion journey.

We will cover all of the following, and more, within the 4 days:
Choosing Seasonally appropriate styles, fabrics and colors.
How our designs will lay on the fashion figure, causing folds and gathering.
Coordinating pieces to become a collection.
Differentiating fabric weights, and how they are illustrated.
Where to add seams and details.

Students will be following along the lessons, but are also encouraged to find their own style. Questions are encouraged as well! 

Assessments are on a per student basis, and optional assigned practice may be requested between classes.

Students may work traditionally or digitally.
