Teaching goals (program content, subject description)

The aim of the course is to learn the theory and practice technical and technological skills which are reflected in the implementation of projects.
Students will learn how to transfer dimensions from a three-dimensional solid such as a human being to a two-dimensional plane such as a construction form/stencil. Taking measurements of the silhouette, learning terminology related to construction and technology of clothing. On the basis of basic constructions, students will learn how to model forms (e.g. moving darts, draping, obtaining desired cuts and patterns). The next stage is making professional templates used in industry. Students learn the techniques of joining materials such as: types and use of seams, ironing techniques, etc.

In semester 3 the following subjects are realized:

Construction of men's or women's shirt/ templates.

Modeling of collars/ stand/ hoods.

Modeling of sleeves/ raglan/ kimono etc.
