Diploma - Dressmaking and Design
A diploma in Dressmaking and Design can prepare students to become skilled in selecting the right materials for a particular style, altering patterns, and finishing garments for proper fits. Identifying fibers and fabrics and how to care for them is also essential for different projects. After a garment is finished we also teach graduates how to mark, cut, and tack fabric for a custom tailored fit in as little as 7 months.
