About the Workshop

The three-day workshop aims to briefly go through the fashion design process from design to making, to realise one design in three-dimensional form. Through discussions and exercises, students will be shown how to research a theme, develop it into a capsule collection of basic elasticated waist skirts, and how to pattern-cut and construct their final chosen skirt.
