Class Modelling and Confection Workshop III

The curricular unit of Patternmaking and Manufacture Atelier III is a fundamental field for Fashion Design and Production. Within Fashion Design the fields of pattern making and manufacturing are essential, from the creation and development of sleeves and their details, the grading of pattern sizes, t-shirt development of patternmaking and manufacturing, the realization of base patterns of a jacket, to the idealization and development of the customization of a jacket, work of individual and practical character, throughout the semester.

1. Construction of basic patterns using two-dimensional patternmaking: t-shirt and bomber jacket; 2. Introduction to grading garment-based patternmaking. Practical exercise;  3. Patternmaking and manufacturing a T-shirt: an in-depth study of the construction of sleeves and armholes and their details (knitting). Practical exercise. 4. Developing a jacket: flat pattern and manufacturing a bomber jacket/blazer; 5.

The course will be developed through theoretical-practical, expository, and demonstrative sessions, and practical work of an experimental nature will be developed during class sessions.

The tutorial teaching will be fundamentally used in monitoring the project, carried out throughout the course unit.
