The new programme gets under way

This sunny weekend saw the long awaited start of our new programme, with the first of the Garment Construction tuition.

We’re really excited about this new edition to our courses; a comprehensive full programme of skills for the fashion industry, covering garment construction, pattern cutting, drawing and design and marketing aspects. Students on this course will learn all the skills they need to design, cut and make a commercially viable collection and to analyse their place within the market. This is the first time we have run such a full comprehensive course, and the first weekend saw a great turn out of eager students getting their teeth into some essential sewing skills.

Want to become a fashion expert?

The course will be expanding in September, but we are currently running the course as both a full programme covering all aspects of design for industry, and as individual sections, for those who want high quality tuition of industry level skills on a specific aspect.

 By doing so, students can either gain a broad but detailed understanding of the fashion design industry as a whole on the full programme, or gain expertise in a specific skill through the smaller sections.

 The sections are: Pattern Cutting, Garment Construction, and Design for a Fashion Collections, check out the website for more details.

A few places still remain on the individual segments, for more information please contact us on 0207 375 3235, or email to info@fashionantidote.com.
