Fashion Classes

• Fashion Sketching Classes ~ Ages 8 - 14
• Our next session will start late October.
• Cost: $275

This class teaches students everything from drawing the basic croquis to illustrating fabrics, skin tone, and notions. By the end of a session the students should be able to illustrate a composition complete with face, hair, garments and shoes. They will learn the 9 head croquis and how to drape on a dress form - same techniques as those taught at schools such as the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising. Students will also learn commercial patterns and how important sewing is in relation to being a "designer." They will also be given a small demo on how to sew. It makes a great prep class for any high schooler planning to apply at FIDM and a fun extra curricular class for anyone interested in fashion.

• Sketching, Pattern, Draping, and Sewing ~ Ages 15 and up
• Our current class is full. Next session to start late October.
• Cost: $295
• Meets: 6:00 PM - 8:30 PM

This class teaches students everything from drawing the basic croquis to illustrating fabrics, skin tone, and notions. By the end of a session the students should be able to illustrate a composition complete with face, hair, garments and shoes. Students will learn to make basic patterns that can be used for their own Fashion Designs. They will learn to drape a muslin bodice and skirt, on a custom dress form that will be created from their own body shape and measurements. By transferring their drape to pattern paper, they can create a pattern used to sew a muslin dress for fitting purposes. Then, with the perfected patterns that they will make, many styles of clothing can be created to fit their own body. Student must bring old unwanted cotton T-shirt - short sleeve and hip length or longer.

Cost includes all materials needed for class, unless noted above. Space is limited to 8 students per class. For more information, please contact us at info@mogandrue.com or 760.635.2664.
