advanced pattern making | eveningwear
What could be more satisfying (or glamorous!) than to design and make your own evening dress using your choice of beautiful fabric, trim and couture finishes. There are two different options for making patterns for evening wear (flat or draped) and the technique is often determined by your fabric and design choice.
SKILL LEVEL: advanced
This is an advanced class and students will need to have competed an Introductory Pattern Making class (Module 1) and Draping (Module 6). Depending on your sewing skills, you may also need to allow more time to perfect the techniques associated with (often tricky) eveningwear fabrics.
