Customization and Creative Sewing Course

Content of the workshop

With your closet as raw material; we will transform the structure and aesthetics of your entire closet.

We will select the pieces of our own closet, choosing the ones we like the most, either in the shape, the fabric or the print of the same. We will compile the selected clothes, and we will make a first essential luggage, to be able to start the trip, in which we will use our clothes as first material. Likewise, we will learn to read the piece, from a fragmented vision. Furthermore, we will understand it, to be able to make partial or integral modifications.

Once analyzed, we will choose between aesthetic or structural variation:

a) Aesthetic: Application of an external element to the piece, recycling all kinds of objects (whatever their nature), in order to add relief or volume to the final piece. Variation of color and texture intervening the fabric; from dyes, batiks, … Application of an image or illustration; with serigraphy, dripping, transfer, frotagge, photoengraving, …

b) Structural: Deconstruction of the structure and shape of the original piece of clothing, in order to generate one of its own. Transforming the use of the pieces, associating between them and turning them into others. Modification of parts of the clothing pieces; sleeves, neckline, length, etc.

Starting from these bases and using them together, we will generate an unlimited field of possibilities, thus favoring the creation of a completely unique and tailor-made final textile product.
