Learn how to tailor your very own mannequin to create your body double and begin making clothes to fit you better.
Frustrated that you can never find patterns in styles you like, or do you find your body is not a standard size?
Over the 2 day course you will measure yourself and create your own body double mannequin based on your measurements.
The first part of the class will be where you create your second skin, a perfect replica of your shape in calico by creating your own dress block tailored specifically to your body shape called a Moulage. Any tweaks or alterations will be made to this to ensure you get the perfect fit.
Make sure to bring your own mannequin along with you, as the next part of the course will be to dedicated padding and shaping your mannequin to become your body double that you can take home with you.
You will then be able to use your own personally tailored body double mannequin to help you create better fitting clothes that you really want to wear. It will also help you to adjust commercial patterns too.
Please get in touch if you would like any recommendations for local hotels, B&B’s or restaurants.
