About this course
A major feature of this intensive course will be the study of cut work organisation, and how to progress this into garment assembly.
Prior experience is a real advantage and whilst we will not pre-select by portfolio, we will expect you to have a basic understanding of fashion design and, more importantly, a hunger to learn and make the most of this unique, tailor-made experience. We will welcome all students who have a real interest in finding out what is possible and how to achieve a real and meaningful outcome.
