GARMENT MAKING

Course Introduction – Garment Making
By Madam Ann, Couture Specialist

Welcome to Garment Making at NYAMBU Couture School! I am Madam Ann, and it is my pleasure to guide you through this exciting journey into the world of couture craftsmanship and garment construction.

This course is designed to give you a solid foundation in garment making, from understanding fabric properties to mastering sewing techniques and constructing professional-quality garments. You will learn not only the technical skills, but also the creative thinking and attention to detail that define couture.

What You Will Learn:

  • Fundamental sewing techniques and machine operation.

  • Accurate pattern drafting and garment measurement.

  • Fabric selection and understanding textile behavior.

  • Construction of basic and advanced garments with precision.

  • Integration of creative design elements inspired by contemporary and African textile traditions.

Why This Course Matters:
Garment making is the cornerstone of fashion design. Mastering these skills will empower you to transform your creative ideas into tangible, high-quality garments, preparing you for a career in couture design, fashion entrepreneurship, or working in professional fashion houses.

Course Structure:

  • Modules: Step-by-step lessons covering sewing, pattern making, and garment construction.

  • Practical Assignments: Hands-on projects to apply skills learned in real-world contexts.

  • Resources: Access to videos, sketches, digital patterns, and curated fabric examples.

A Note from Me:
Success in garment making comes from patience, practice, and precision. Approach each task with care, experiment boldly with designs, and embrace mistakes as learning opportunities. Remember, every professional garment you see started as a carefully constructed first stitch—just like the ones you will create here.

I encourage you to watch the introductory course video for a visual overview of techniques and atelier setup before starting the modules.

Let’s begin this journey of craftsmanship, creativity, and couture excellence together. Welcome to Garment Making!

Warm regards,
Madam Ann
