If you're a brand owner, fashion designer, in retail or manufacturing and involved in apparel product development, your success hinges on garments that fit and satisfy customers.

Master essential technical skills like proper fit techniques and quality standards. Improve communication with factories worldwide using clear industry terminology. Learn to establish quality specifications for prototypes, minimizing fit adjustments and reducing costs.

This course is ideal for patternmakers, designers, and product developers looking to enhance their work methods. Basic knowledge of the apparel design process is recommended.

Students should bring a tape measure and a crew neck t-shirt to be used as a sample product.

Note: Our workshop program operates independently of our Certificate in Fashion Design core curriculum. Enrollment in SFD workshops does not count toward completion of the Certificate program.
