Learn to create patterns directly on a body to make bespoke clothing items that are fitted to anyone's shape and proportions
¨A piece of clothing should dress each body with precision and comfort, as if it were a second skin. Modeling done directly on the person allows us to understand natural curves and cutting needs, thus making impeccable molds.¨, says designer and creative director Jum Nakao.
With more than 40 years of experience in the world of fashion, Jum has collaborated with the London Olympic Games and the Oscar ceremony and has designed collections for brands such as Nike, Zoomp and Carmim. In addition, her fashion show A Coutura do Invisível was considered one of the greatest of the 21st century by the Paris Fashion Museum.
In this online course, Jum will teach you how to develop custom patterns for dresses and t-shirts that adjust to everyone's shape. From the fundamentals of modeling on the body and creping, you will be able to produce tailor-made pieces with freedom, without numbers or formulas. Learn to create gifts that will dress every body like a glove!
