Learn to Dress-Make with Freja Designer Dressmaking
Make your own capsule wardrobe.
Would you like to learn how to dress for your body type, develop your personal style, how to take your own measurements and get set up to get started in dressmaking?
You will get the answers in this one off short course. It contains pre-recorded tutorials and you can listen whenever it suits you.
Do you want to try dressmaking but want to make sure it’s for you?
The following questions may help you to find your answer:
Is it hard for you to find items that suit your personal style and lifestyle?
Have you been to shops or ordered endless garments online and not found anything you like?
Would you like clothes that flatter your shape?
Garments made in colours and fabrics you like?
If you answered yes to at least one of these questions & you are fed up with buying stuff that doesn’t seem to fit your lifestyle, body shape or taste, then our course can help you start your dressmaking process.
