We are excited to announce that CIAM will soon begin a short course for a basic wardrobe. We have developed this course after many requests from interested sewers.
The aim of this course is to create a 5-piece customised basic wardrobe:
- shell top (camisole)
- skirt
- dress
- jacket
- pants (trousers)
All these wardrobe items are unlined.
You will learn how to:
- Correctly take your body measurements.
- Draft a customised master pattern for each garment using the CIAM Method.
- Choose the correct styles for your body shape and lifestyle.
- Learn about appropriate fabrics for your garments.
- Learn how to mix and match colours for your wardrobe.
- Learn couture sewing techniques required to complete each garment
- Complete the 5 garments.
If a student wishes to continue to the “Certificate in Patternmaking”, any work carried out in the Short Course will be credited.
Please contact us to register your interest and reserve your place. You may also phone us on (02) 9759 5904.
Further information will soon be provided including class times and locations.
We look forward to hearing from you!
