Fabric Recommendations:
To make your learning experience easy and enjoyable, we recommend buying natural woven fabrics in light to medium weight. Great options include cotton, linen, cotton-linen blends, lightweight denim, viscose, and poplin.
For the first lesson, please bring fabric for your pants or shorts. We recommend purchasing 2 lengths of your pants or shorts plus an extra 30 cm, with a fabric width of at least 115 cm. For top with long sleeves, you will need to bring 2,5m linen fabric with width of at least 115 cm.
We recommend pre-washing, drying, and steam-ironing your fabric before class. Natural fabrics tend to shrink after the first wash, so this step helps to avoid surprises and ensures the final fit of your garment.
Once your pants are completed, we will provide fabric recommendations for your top. The required fabric length will depend on your preferred top length and sleeve style.
