Duration: 1.5 hours

It's time to think about your Autumn/Winter wardrobe, so cue our next online class: The Style Sessions: Winter Wardrobe 24/25, in collaboration with Fiona Ingham, personal stylist from House of Colour. 

Do you find it difficult to make decisions on patterns, fabrics, and design details? 

In this Style Session we will explore how to marry your personal style with current trends. 

Makers often tell us that they spend time, money and effort sewing a garment and then are disappointed that they don’t feel great in it. Equally, it’s easy to get stuck in a sewing rut, making the same old styles over and over again.

The Style Sessions are all about how to get to know your own personal style. This isn't about rules and regulations but about exploring and developing your own unique look so you can be confident that you really enjoy wearing the clothes you sew and/or buy.

The key to loving everything in your wardrobe is confidence in your personal style - which comes from an awareness of your body shape (not size!), your proportions and your own unique personality.

The class will be hosted by design and style experts Alice (Alice & Co) and Fiona (House of Colour) who guarantee a fun and enlightening session. The class will cover:

• current trends and how to make them work for you
  
• picking silhouettes, colours, textures, prints, details and trimmings
• putting an outfit together
• oodles of inspiration!

Think of it like your favourite fashion magazine come to life where you can ask questions and it will talk back with answers!
