Fashion Illustration: Beginner Private Lesson

Making clothing has always fascinated me. I love the power than clothing holds and the intricacies of what makes a garment. I am not in the business of fashion to look cool, to add to the climate crisis fast fashion is creating, or to make others feel insecure. I’m in fashion because I love creating clothing, because we all wear clothing, and because clothing is my outlet to entrepreneurship and innovation.

Fashion is fun and people don’t have to commit to a full college curriculum to learn fashion skills. We are here to encourage customers to try new things - whether it’s a new skill like sewing or to start the fashion line they’ve been dreaming of.

After 10 years of running my clothing brand, I pivoted my company to teach others fashion skills and how to navigate this nebulous and complex industry. Our team of fashion professional instructors are highly skilled, personable, and fit our company culture. It's important to me they are also learning new skills, getting paid a reasonable wage, and making connections that will further their fashion careers. We hope you can find the joy we have in creating our own clothes.
