This intensive workshop offers exclusive access to the Zurich Fashion School’s private collection, featuring carefully reproduced garments by Madeleine Vionnet as well as original pieces by John Galliano, Issey Miyake, Vivienne Westwood, and other influential designers.

 

At the heart of the program lies a deep exploration of garment construction through observation, analysis, and technical understanding. Participants study draping, proportions, volume, and structure – and develop informed interpretations through hands-on work.

 

Combining theory, pattern development, and atelier practice, this program strengthens both creative and technical skills and builds a solid foundation of design knowledge.

​

 

 

• To analyse the design principles of Vionnet, Miyake, John Galliano, and Westwood

• To develop and translate your own patterns based on analytical observation

• To deepen your knowledge of draping, volume, and creative pattern-making

• To work in an atelier setting with close guidance

 

​

Fashion students, designers, pattern makers, and creative professionals with prior knowledge of sewing and pattern making.
