About

This intensive 3D Draping on The Stand Summer School at the London College of Fashion concentrates on key elements from our ‘3D Draping Module 1’ course before moving on to cover advanced creative draping work.

Overview

You will start by draping fabric onto a dressmakers stand/mannequin and learning the techniques to transfer these designs onto paper to make a pattern. You will then move on to more advanced styling, transforming your concepts into different shapes and styles as well as making and sewing a final finished toile (test garment).
