For designer Reagen Evans, fashion is about more than just making clothes to sell–it’s about creating each piece with a unique person in mind, and draping is an essential part of his method. He founded his own couture fashion house at just 22 years old and has dressed clients including The Duchess of Rutland.

In this course, Reagen teaches you the ins and outs of draping your clothing designs and how to transfer them into paper patterns. Learn to design and construct your own garment from scratch; starting with the outer layer before moving on to the lining and fastenings. Are you ready to create clothes people can’t wait to wear?
