Fashion design and tailoring: from sketch to sewing - Madrid

Fashion design and tailoring: from sketch to sewing

From 14.36 £ /h

Fashion design encompasses everything from the initial concept to its execution in fabric. In this course, we will review the entire process, from the initial planning stages, including research into references, silhouettes, and so on, to the details of garment construction: pattern making, basic alterations, fabric selection and sewing techniques, as well as sewing on trims (zippers, buttons, etc.).

Ideal for people who want to learn to sew their own clothes, the course can focus on the more technical aspects (pattern making and sewing) if desired.

Extra information

You can choose between the technical part (sewing and pattern making), the creative part (planning and development of a collection) or both.

About Me

I'm not going to bore you with everything I've done in my life as a designer, but as a summary I'll mention that I've designed and worked a lot with drag queens, I have a YouTube channel where I talk about fashion and I illustrate several designs that I show on that platform.

I love sharing what I know to help those who know less and provide them with a new perspective to understand the world of fashion, design, and drawing focused on these sectors.

Fashion illustration: fashion figures and representation of textiles and materials

14.36 £ /h

Using traditional techniques (hand drawing) or through the use of a digital medium (Adobe Photoshop), drawing is a fundamental element in fashion to capture the ideas and concepts that are in our mind and to be able to give them physical form.

Understanding human body proportions, color theory, and how to accurately represent textile textures are tools that greatly simplify the creative process when planning your designs.

Isaure

I learned sewing and pattern making from my grandmother, like many of us! Passionate about history, she passed on to me her love of savoir-faire, craftsmanship and historical costumes. In 2021, I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Fashion Design. I then specialised in costume and audiovisual productions by taking part in several short films. A year ago, I obtained my Master's degree in stage costume design and production. I was lucky enough to do several internships in Parisian fashion houses, especially in the tailoring workshops.
My strong point is sharing my passion for the craft. :) Don't hesitate to contact me for more information or to request a course!
PS: At first I can provide some of the sewing material.

I am happy to share my skills and offer sewing and pattern making courses as well as styling. If you want to learn the basics, improve your technique, learn how to alter or upcycle your clothing or home linens, or give free rein to your imagination and creativity, I am here to help.

I offer several types of courses depending on the level:
1) Introductory classes on the basics of sewing, materials, and making a small project.
2) Carrying out a creative project of the student's choice, which will have been previously discussed so that the student can prepare it as best as possible.
3) Carrying out a creative project prepared by me to awaken the student's creativity and curiosity.
