Do you think you have no talent in Fashion Design, but need to learn how to design? Do you have interesting ideas but cannot show them because you have difficulty in drawing?

With this course, even those who find drawing difficult will be able to learn how to express their ideas visually.

Fashion Design Technical is intended for those who need to understand and communicate basic technical details using correct figure proportions. It contains step-by-step visual instructions on:

  • Basic figure drawing in proportionate sizes with all basic figures for Womenswear, Menswear and Childrenswear.
  • Drafting of poses and movement as well as a great training library of garment parts.
  • Exercises with design technical features and details for drawing pleats, seams etc.
  • You will also learn Technical Drawing theory. You will learn how to use a two-dimensional drawing to translate the correct proportionate details of a garment from either a dressed figure drawing or a flat pattern block.

Fashion Design Technical is part of the Fashion Design Full Course, but can be studied independently.

This course is comprised of the following modules:

  • Figure construction (12 figures for basic proportionate figure construction)
  • Poses (35 examples of figure movement).
  • Drawing of the following Garment parts:
    • 28 skirts
    • 13 trousers
    • 60 sleeves
    • 25 necklines
    • 69 collars
    • 28 openings and fastenings
    • 27 bodices and jackets
    • 9 coats
    • 32 belts
    • 24 cuffs
    • 40 pockets
    • 39 details of Menswear
    • 10 seams and pleats
    • 12 decorative designs
    • 8 frills
    • 8 bows
  • Theory and application of 7 technical drawing examples

Since taking the Telestia pattern making course , I have learnt so much about pattern making and I have developed a particular interest in pattern designing and making. I am so grateful for the Telestia creator, it has made it extremely easy to create more designs in very little time, I have been using the Telestia creator, confidently for about 6months now and it gets easier every single time.

I am still doing my Telestia pattern grading and Telestia Sewing course in my spare time.

I create all my fashion pieces with the Telestia creator - for accuracy and consistency, they are all available on my online shop MommadeUK

These are couple of sewing projects I have done during and after my short E-Telestia Course. E-Telestia re-awaken my interest and passion in sewing.

Though I'm still in the process of honing the craft, it will serve as my inspiration to do better sewing projects.

Overall, I definitely recommend this course to anyone who is seriously considering to learn how to draft, design and sew their own clothes.

I am enjoying the course very much and learning a lot. It is taught in a logical order. The tutors are very knowledgeable and helpful. They check the assignments thoroughly and send appropriate comments to help students improve. Overall, I definitely recommend this course to anyone who is seriously considering to learn how to draft, design and sew their own clothes. I have not even completed the entire course and I drafted and sewed my own pattern for a dress I just saw in catalogue. The fitting was amazing and I was able to do this based on the techniques I learned through the course.

Σήμερα έχω ένα δικό μου χώρο και όλες αυτές οι ιδέες, σκέψεις, χρώματα, υφάσματα συνταιριάζονται και ζωντανεύουν! Και σας ευγνωμονώ γιαυτό!!

Γεια σας! Είμαι η Εύη και έχω παρακολουθήσει τα μαθήματα πατρόν της σχολής από το διαδίκτυο. Αν και φάνταζε δύσκολο να μάθεις κάτι τόσο πρακτικό από τον υπολογιστή, ομολογώ ότι τα μαθήματα ήταν έτσι δομημένα, με πολλές εικόνες που εξηγούσαν τις διαδικασίες, που κατάφερα εν τέλει να κάνω αυτό που ονειρευόμουν! Να σχεδιάζω και να ράβω παιδικά ρούχα! Σήμερα έχω ένα δικό μου χώρο και όλες αυτές οι ιδέες, σκέψεις, χρώματα, υφάσματα συνταιριάζονται και ζωντανεύουν! Και σας ευγνωμονώ γιαυτό!!

Telestia provides for the Fashion Industry a coherent, accurate, proven pattern making and design methodology, which allows an articulate dialogue between the designer and the pattern cutter.

In order to communicate effectively it helps to speak the same language. Telestia provides for the Fashion Industry a coherent, accurate, proven pattern making and design methodology, which allows an articulate dialogue between the designer and the pattern cutter. Telestia is the result of a century of research and development into perfect fit and balance and is available in many mediums, including books, CAD, online courses and taught courses.

When the results of the Telestia way begin to be recognised by industry, academia and the consumer, 'The Revolution' will happen without effort. It was an absolute honour and a privilege to be part of this. I've met incredible people, made solid friendships and learned more in 5 days than I have in 5 years of education and 20 years of practice.

Telestia feels like a long overdue wake-up call to the fashion industry, once experienced, never forgotten.

...A wonderfully succinct introduction to possibly the best defined and created methodology for making garments ever produced. Telestia's exacting standards, clear to see but easily and intuitively adopted, stem from the originator, Anastasia's own lifelong dedication to creating a 'teaching-based' methodology for pattern design and combines the collective knowledge of numerous global industry specialists (including her own mother's couture skills!) Telestia feels like a long overdue wake-up call to the fashion industry, once experienced, never forgotten. It comprises a set of tools, based on a far superior methodology that can redress the slavish perpetuation of ill-fitting, inferior garment production from inadequate blocks, based on an approximation to designs that bear little relation to them - or worse still the individual, whose actual measurements are never fully taken into account within the creation of the block in the first place. Elementary, fundamental and yet revolutionary in its far-reaching benefits.

Telestia, for all its exquisitely intelligent applied thinking to the pattern making process, is non-elitist and remarkably easy to adopt. Using it demonstrated process step by process step, how even the most experienced pattern cutters can benefit from seeing 'professional work-arounds' rendered unnecessary and ultimately inadequate by a methodology that can be tracked back, every single time, to show precisely why and how the best results can be achieved without exception. Telestia is so cleverly thought through that it can teach the complete beginner professional standards from the very first use of the genius-engineered template tools without them feeling daunted or inadequately prepared. In fact, they have only good habits to learn by starting with Telestia - not old ones to unlearn!

I've bought several kits from Anastasia to use with my evening class home dressmaker students, some of whom are very skilled dressmakers - which will also give me a chance to practice!

It's amazing the way you can become a designer or tailor through online learning. This is an investment that I'll never regret all my life.

I would like to share my story with single mothers like me who think it's impossible to make it with a child.
I started studying with eTelestia, while my son was only almost 5years old, today my son is almost 10years old. I've always worked during the day and during the evenings I did my studies while my son was in bed till I felt I was tired to do it. The more I thought it was impossible to do the cutting and drawing, the more it got interesting and the more I came up with different ideas to design. It is amazing the way you can become a designer or tailor through online learning.
Of course you need determination to achieve anything in life and you need to be willing to put effort at least everyday of your time. The best part about eTelestia courses, is that it is well explained and the examples are easy to follow and whenever you have questions, the teachers respond to you as quick as possible…..
Today I make clothes for different private clients and make extra cash for my living, and this is the investment that I'll never regret all my life. Here attached are some of my samples that I have made and myself wearing one of the evening dress.

After many moons of searching for a pattern system that can be used properly and efficiently I found Telestia.

About twelve years ago I did a basic fashion diploma (very basic). I always had problems with the fit of commercial patterns and It did not make sense to me to buy a pattern that is "kind of" what I want, and that "kind of" fits and I would have to redo the whole pattern in any case. I also have a constant curiosity for the "why" and "how" factor. After many moons of searching for a pattern system that can be used properly and efficiently I found Telestia. I found that drafting a flat pattern with the old method and lots of calculations and so on a bit of a large task (specially with my kids that grow way too fast) It almost did not seem worth it.
I love fabric, and love to look at the way it behaves, and what it wants to do. I also love detail, even the details that one does not know goes into clothes, like with tailoring. When i finally make a fully hand tailored jacket, it has to be a perfect fit including its linings and stabilizers.
There are few people today that sees clothes design and construction and pattern design as a craft, a craft that seems to be dying out too. I also want to incorporate the new skills I'm learning into my quilting. I want to design jackets and coats that can be quilted - I guess more like a art and would like to send it into the shows. I find working with the patterns and playing with the lines and trying to visualize the the end result and the processes of making it one of the most satisfying activities I have ever come across. :)

Οι σπουδές μου στο πρόγραμμα e-telestia υπήρξαν άκρως εποικοδομητικές.

Οι σπουδές μου στο πρόγραμμα e-telestia υπήρξαν άκρως εποικοδομητικές. Ομολογώ πως είχα αρκετές επιφυλάξεις πριν πάρω την απόφαση να ξεκινήσω τις εν λόγω σπουδές, και βασικός παράγοντας στην απόφασή μου στάθηκαν τα demos που επιδεικνύουν ξεκάθαρα τον τρόπο που ακολουθείται στη διαδικασία μελέτης και εκμάθησης. Τα οφέλη δε που αποκόμισα είναι άμεσα, μιας και οι δυνατότητές μου να δημιουργώ ένα ένδυμα -από τον σχεδιασμό του έως την υλοποίησή του-, μου προσφέρουν ένα αίσθημα ικανοποίησης, δημιουργικότητας και άμεσης εφαρμογής των γνώσεων που έλαβα σε μία διαρκώς και ευρέως αναπτυσσόμενη αγορά.
Καταλυτικά υπήρξαν επίσης το κόστος και η διάρκεια σπουδών, αφού η μελέτη στον προσωπικό μου χώρο δεν επιβάρυνε τον οικονομικό προϋπολογισμό μου. Προτείνω ανεπιφύλαχτα τις σπουδές εξ αποστάσεως e-telestia στον κάθε ενδιαφερόμενο που θέλει να προσφέρει όχι μόνο ως επαγγελματίας, αλλά χρησιμοποιώντας τις γνώσεις του και ως εργαλείο για τον εαυτό του.

The format and content of your course is incredible. I haven't made it too far yet, but from what I have seen so far it looks like you guys have done an amazing job at breaking it all down into understandable steps while at the same time allowing the student to see how it will all come together.

I will be enrolling in some more of your courses in the future. I am so excited that I found your website.

I took a course at a community college on pattern drafting and am finding your course to make much more sense to me and I feel confident that when I am finished I will actually have the skills to draft patterns. I have to admit I was a little hesitant about learning such a skill using a e-format, but you guys must have really put A LOT of thought and work into producing these courses. I am looking forward to going through the rest of the modules. And I will be enrolling in some more of your courses in the future. I am so excited that I found your website. Thank you.

I really enjoyed the course - Fashion Design - Technical drawing. I had no previous art experience and was never able to successfully draw the human body, yet alone clothing. The course gave me step-by-step instructions and a very sound methodology to not only learn to draw, but be able to do so with ever increasing accuracy. I also found my tutor to be helpful with questions not only about the course, but also helped me with a small IT problem I had with my computer.
