MENS and WOMENS PATTERN DESIGN - FASHION TECHNOLOGY

Our three-year course was created in response to the growing demand by companies within the sector for clothes pattern-makers capable of working in a completely autonomous way and who possess a high level of technical knowledge. In this way, pattern designers are able to face the ever-growing competitiveness of the fashion industry. During their first year, students will learn the methods and basic technical skills needed to create skirts, vests, shirts, and trousers.
