Pattern Making

Course details

Our method is based on a simple and intuitive concept with just one aim, to make every kind of clothing. All the bases are made by hand, without using pre-made bases. From the beginning you have real contact with the fabric and you will create different items of clothing. At the end of the course, after having made many patterns, you'll be able to create everything from a simple shirt to an elegant suit, from a skirt to a coat, from underwear to wedding gowns.The Burgo method is both traditional and new at the same time. The aura of old-fashioned tailoring shops is combined with modern creativity, always evolving with time. That's why the practice and the search regarding the materials are at the base of our method. It's very important, step by step, to have constant contact with the teacher. Each student is followed and advised, always with respect for his own inpiduality. For this reason there cannot be more than 8 students per teacher.
