Fashion Draping Courses
Description
The Fashion Draping course is designed to teach students three-dimensional fashion design through the technique of draping the calico material directly on a body form, the mannequin. Students can use the principles of draping to create original garments and unique shapes, as seen in Haute Couture. The prototypes in calico material can be translated into flat patterns and recreated in fashion fabric at a later stage.
