Description
Design and create a simple jumpsuit or romper using different trim & sewing techniques. The designers will also explore trending designs, fabrics, and accessories that are inspired by the French dressing up for Mardi Gras or the Jazz festival. The accessory of the week is either decorate and design a parasol or a mask. Then they’ll even make a braided belt to complement their design.

Our students [Fashion Designers] start with the sketch (croquis), technical details, choosing and rendering the fabric, learning the proper way to make a pattern, including measuring each other, understanding the importance of this process and the fit of the garment. They learn how to pin and sew using a sewing machine. Then, they sew the entire garment including the final fitting. Finally, on the last day of our camp, we hold our Fashion Show. During our fashion summer camp weeks, we add fashion challenges (i.e. Newspaper challenges, trash bag challenges), for our designers to explore their innermost fashion taste and skills. Our designers team up with other designers for this quite unique and fun experience. No sewing experience necessary. All fabric, supplies, and use of the sewing machines are included.
What’s the difference between the 9-12:00, 9-2 & the 9-4 class?
9-12:00 These designers will design the project and learn about the week’s special focused theme, not including fashion challenges and added accessories. We’re always busy learning having fun and meeting new friends.
9-2:00 These designers will design the project and learn about the week’s special focused theme including fashion challenges (i.e. Newspaper challenges, trash bag challenges). We’re always busy learning having fun and meeting new friends.
9-4:00 These designers will design the project and learn about the week’s special focused theme including fashion challenges (i.e. Newspaper challenges, trash bag challenges). From 2-4:00 they’ll work on an extra accessory or a textile design that the week offers. We may even have time to watch a Project Runway episode. We’re always busy learning having fun and meeting new friends.
* Grades 2-12 welcome. Please check each camp week for specific age requirements. The designers will be broken down into age and skill levels. The beginning sewist will learn at their own pace threading and learning how to sew.
