Overview
About the course
The dress will be taken to 'Toile' stage and all be worked in Calico fabric, which will be provided. There might also be time to look at other costumes of the period.
By the end of the Costume Making course at the University of the Arts London (UAL), you should be able to identify costumes from all periods of the 18th century, have the confidence to make a pattern from a design and have the knowledge of how to complete it.
Programme Structure
What you will learn:
- Initially making a corset-shape to transform the mannequins into an 18th century silhouette, you will then be taken through the process of cutting a dress pattern on the stand and explain the methods needed to complete the costume.
- We will be using calico fabric (provided) throughout the week and concentrating on getting one or more toiles completed.
- There will be the opportunity to venture into mens costume and also other useful skills including frogging and boning.
