Digital Patternmaking — 5 Essential Skirt Foundations

The course explores five essential skirt constructions through a technical, digital approach in CLO3D. From taking measurements to developing the pattern, each lesson examines the construction principles that determine the shape of the garment.
Learning objective: to understand the construction principles of the five skirt foundations, develop the digital pattern methodically and learn to recognise some of the most common errors in construction and fit.

Learning from errors too
Five in-depth videos address the most common errors in skirt construction, showing how to recognise them and understand their effects on the final result. Through practical examples and simulations in CLO3D, students can observe the relationship between a construction decision and the behaviour of the garment.
