Stadio Wants To Kickstart Your Fashion Career With Short Course

Thanks to the beauty that is the world’s time zones, I often found myself waking up in the middle of the night to watch the first glimpse of our favourite celebrities on the red carpet. Coupled with hours of my eyes glued to Fashion TV, there were definitely dreams of becoming the next Yves Saint Laurent.

Yet, I soon realized that I was better at writing out the images in my head, not drawing them, and so I had to let that dream go, but that doesn’t mean that you have to. In fact, The Design Studio at the Stadio School of Fashion is looking to propel you to red carpets all over the world.

Stadio To Launch Your Fashion Dreams

With its unique three-month short course contact program, Stadio will level the fashion world playing field. It will do this by providing aspiring professionals with the essential skills needed to succeed in the dynamic world of fashion and design. 

The best part?

The impressive and comprehensive curriculum has been curated by Studies’ Design Studio to help one develop the highest level of practical skills and theoretical competency in the shortest time. This will enable you to thrive in entry-level fashion contexts. 

What’s in the program?

The program equips students with the knowledge and expertise necessary to jump-start a successful career. It also reduces the need for long commitments or student debt.

Divided into four parts, the program covers each core practice in detail. This then allows students to build a strong foundation in their chosen area of expertise:

1. CREATIVE DESIGN – Introduces students to the theoretical principles of design. It equips them with essential skills such as elementary drawing, technical drawing, and observation. This will help them apply various concepts in a fashion context. The module also teaches students to find inspiration from external sources, enabling them to create visually stunning storyboards for effective presentations.
2. GARMENT CONSTRUCTION – Helps students develop skill in using basic garment construction equipment effectively and efficiently. This then allows them to learn to sew garments at a foundation level. The module also focuses on translating basic patterns from 2D to 3D, allowing students to bring their designs to life through practical construction techniques.
3. PATTERN DESIGN – Enhances students’ ability to apply elementary measuring and drafting methods. This will help them gain insights into proportion, construct mock-ups, and create basic patterns, aligning them with entry-level pattern-making positions in the fashion industry. This module serves as a stepping stone for students to delve deeper into the world of pattern design.
4. MAKEUP – Students will get comprehensive skills aligned with the foundational principles and practices that form the basis of makeup application.
