About Autumn Half Term Fashion Camp
Embrace your creativity at Little Hands Design October Half Term Camp!In this exciting week, you'll discover how to design and make spooky Halloween costumes and accessories or create your own autumn/winter fashion collection.
Through a focus on ZERO WASTE design, we are using surplus materials donated by leading fashion brands, as well as deconstructing and redesigning thrifted clothes.
Get ready to experiment with unconventional ideas, inspired by emerging designers in the fashion industry.
At Little Hands Design, we cater to all dexterity levels, so don't worry if you're a beginner – we've got you covered!
From designing and measuring to cutting fabric and mastering the sewing machine, we'll teach you the skills you need to bring your creations to life.
This course will show you that fashion is so much more than just sewing fabric, although we do a lot of that too!
Throughout the week, our experienced teachers will guide you through the process, ensuring you feel confident and supported.
We'll provide all the necessary materials and give you plenty of opportunities to let your imagination run wild. Feel a mix of excitement and curiosity as you explore new techniques and materials, and rest assured, our teachers are excited to join you on your explorative journey.
By the end of the Camp, you'll have not only learned valuable sewing skills and gained an understanding of what it takes to be a thoughtful designer.
You will also take home your handmade autumn collection and/or SPOOKY Halloween costume! So, what are you waiting for?
Let your creativity shine this October half-term holiday!
