Professional Pattern Drafting

This basic drawing class develops the skills necessary to draw a fashion figure and covers fundamental techniques and technical information for students who want to design apparel and illustrate designs for customers.

Students learn how to manipulate basic block patterns (called slopers) to create an infinite number of styles. We teach both the pivotal transfer and slash and spread methods for creating any silhouette from a basic pattern as well as the fundamentals of creating your own patterns from scratch.
