Fashion Alterations – hemming, fitting and adjustment

Each week focuses on specific techniques and garment types. Activities include live demonstrations, guided practice sessions, and individual projects. Students receive personalised feedback and participate in group discussions.

Activities in class can involve standing at high tables for a period of time. Please let the tutor know if this would be difficult for you. Sewing machines have a foot operated speed control. The fashion studios are on the first floor of the Chelsea Hortensia building and there is lift access to the first floor. Please note eating and drinking is not allowed in the fashion studios - you are allowed to have bottled water.
