This Saturday design preparatory day program is for ages 11 to 18. Students with limited art training are invited to apply.
Course work is hands-on and homework may be provided to strengthen design capabilities. Program includes Level I, II, and III.
Program courses specialize in fashion from design to perfect fit made-to-measure high fashion clothing construction. Combined with the life experiences of our instructors, the Saturday High Fashion Arts Program introduces a real-world vision of careers in the fashion industry from couture to ready-to-wear.
French couture made-to-measure is a technique explored primarily in Academy of Couture Art degree programs. Where most fashion programs explore sizing such as 8 and 10, the High Fashion Arts Program gives participants the advantage by accessing the sophisticated French method of drafting the garment pattern from scratch to shape the unique individual body.
