Certificate in Draping

Students learn three-dimensional garment construction through draping techniques, developing skills in fit, proportion, and garment structure.

The course provides hands-on training in fabric manipulation and garment development directly on dress forms. Learners understand how different fabrics behave on the body and how to create balanced, well-fitted designs using professional draping methods. Students also gain experience in converting draped garments into production-ready patterns while refining their understanding of silhouette, garment flow, and construction techniques. By the end of the program, they will be prepared for assistant roles in couture studios and custom tailoring units.
