We kick off the first session of BEHIND THE SEAMS with a deep dive into the fashions of the Ancient World. Between them the Egyptians, Greeks and Romans taught us there’s a lot you can do with a rectangle of cloth - from simple sheath dresses to elaborate drapery. We look at statues, pots, frescoes and mosaics to deduce the construction methods of these garments, before having a go ourselves with an Ancient World inspired pattern-cutting marathon! Expect draping, minimal sewing and original zero waste designs!
INCLUDES:
Access to recording of x1 live class (2hrs)
PDF companion covering all the pattern-cutting techniques demonstrated in the class
Mini-blocks pdfs to follow along with the tutorials and practice your own designs
