Students will learn the construction techniques to make a jacket inspired by an original 1950’s design by Cristobal Balenciaga. Students will need to purchase the pattern, which is in half scale, prior to the class. Many couturièrs tested designs in half scale as it saved material and allowed for a better working view of the garment. We will also practice the construction in half scale, and students will gain the confidence to make the full scale garment on their on time. The pattern can easily be enlarged to full scale pattern by a professional print shop. Instructions will be sent upon registration. RSVP below.
