About

Simplify the mystery of bra making on this Structured Bra Making course from London College of Fashion! Learn how to accurately cut out and construct a series of structured bras.

Overview

Key facts

The garments will include: a non-wired full cup bra, an under-wired padded bra and a non-padded darted bra. 

You will assemble and take home three different styles of bra, all in size 34. The tutor will also demonstrate how to deconstruct and take a pattern from a bra, so you can create your own size pattern at home. 

Features

You will be using industrial machines on the Structured Bra Making course from London College of Fashion, but the techniques you learn will be transferable to domestic sewing machines at home. 

Materials will be included, but a list of specialist suppliers will be provided, so you can source your own fabrics and trims for future development.
