Industrial Sizing - Childrenswear

This course is addressed to students who wish to develop their skills in basic pattern making, as well as to professionals looking for new forms and visions.

Fashion change from season to season, and pattern making designers are constantly creating new prototypes and adapting them accordingly. This course will allow learners to develop their knowledge of techniques on base pattern making for children’s clothes, from their creation from a base pattern and their alterations in order to obtain the desired final pattern, to the industrialization of the pattern itself. By implementing these alterations, the student will obtain skills on children’s base pattern alterations. This course also includes the complete confection (pattern design, pattern alteration through sizing, cut and confection) of the designs on fabric.

Our course materials are continuously updated by our specialized teachers on Industrial Pattern Making and Industrial Sizing as well as by professional experts in the fashion industry. We edit industrial pattern making and sizing technical books, in which varied techniques on pattern making and sizing are clearly explained with plenty of graphics and illustrations.

Pattern Making and Sizing courses can start at any time of year, with a flexible schedule of days and /or evenings.
