We are flexibly set up to teach in person with social distancing and online. Following Government and London School of Mosaic’s guidelines. This course is planned to be ran in person. In the case of the guidelines changing the class the course will go online. We can accommodate students joining online only should you prefer this or in the unlikely case of government guidelines requiring us to do so!
Come and spend 5 days of practical, hands-on, fun-packed sessions with us! You will learn how to develop your own unique dress sense, become responsible consumers and how to design and make clothes and accessories whilst being mindful of the environment. We are lucky to have the support of leading fashion brands and will experiment with their kindly donated industry waste materials of highest quality. We will dive into the world of mending, altering and thrifting, learn about the life cycle of clothes, become socially conscious influencers and find out about new technologies aimed at reducing the impact of fashion on the environment. Suitable for all levels expect to use the sewing machine, hand-sewing, taking apart garments to create new garments, make trash to treasure with our beautiful waste materials of the highest quality. On successful completion of the course you will receive a certificate and become a ‘Sustainable Fashion Ambassador’!

We are a group of fashion designers, dressmakers and Design and Technology teachers, all passionate about contributing to a more mindful way with fashion. Our children’s classes, adult classes and Green Stitch Social Club are run at the London School of Mosaic in Gospel Oak and also running children’s classes directly at primary and secondary schools.
