Best Dressmaking Workshop Calgary Near Me

4worldlovers:
Private comprehensive school of sewing and fashion design in Calgary, Alberta, dedicated to teaching the fine art of haute couture sewing.

Unique curriculum combining European haute couture techniques and 60 years of professional experience with originality of design, quality fabrics and perfection of fit and finish.


Dressmaking and Couturier/Tailoring offered in this specialized area, luxury niche market, in fashion to those with discerning tastes and creative ambitions.

To fulfill the demand for highly specialized sewing skills in this luxury niche market of the fashion design industry. To respond to designers having difficulty in finding the expertise to create couture fashion with trained knowledgeable sewing professionals, particularly in the areas of pattern making, sample making and hand finishing, and to nurture exceptional talent in couture.

École Holt Couture believes that the mentor apprentice relationship, which is so crucial to the transference of very specialized sewing skills, has been lost to current fashion design education. The school therefore integrates theory with practical application, teaches techniques of design and pattern making; couture skills of precise tailoring and dressmaking and the embellishment of apparel and accessories as a specialization distinct from fashion design, marketing and merchandising.

"There is nothing like the high you get when you see your clients experience the joy of falling-in-love with how great they look and how good they feel wearing a garment designed and perfectly made - just for them!".

You will learn the skills to become the inspiration and creator behind the clothes, to express your artistic talent through original pattern making and garment design.

"With its top-notch team of instructors, EHC is destined to become one of a few exceptional haute couture teaching facilities in the world".

Concepts of fashion design developed through history are examined throughout the program, as well as the cultural implications that fashion has on society.

In Calgary, dresses that stand out and fit you perfectly can be hard to find. At Hanna’s Design & Alterations, we’ll make you a dress or other outfit that will capture attention and bring out the best in you.

Our custom Calgary dresses include wedding dresses, formal dresses and cocktail dresses. But Hanna doesn’t specialize; with more than 30 years of experience, she can design and create any outfit you desire, from skating and dance costumes to jackets and pants.

If you’re tired of the limited fashion selection in Calgary, dresses designed just for you by Hanna are the answer.

See something you love but can’t find it in Calgary? Dresses, skirts, costumes and more are easy to copy when you have enough experience. Hanna can even create brilliant dresses inspired by the fashions you see the stars wearing. And a custom dress by Hanna is an affordable alternative to buying designer clothes.

If you’re not sure what you want, let Hanna dream up the perfect outfit for you based on your colouring, body type and fashion preferences.

For many clients in Calgary, dresses produced by big-name designers look great on the hanger but not so great on them. Hanna uses her creativity, good taste, knowledge of colour and fabric and superior dressmaking skills to design a custom creation perfectly tailored to you.

Dave’s Custom Tailoring has been my only destination for the finest tailoring for many years. I have had suits taken in, pants tapered and jackets and sleeves shortened to perfection but was amazed at their ability to also completely update clothing to today’s fashion standards. This includes removing pleats in pants, adding vents to jackets and even altering out of fashion wide suit shoulders! This level of expertise is alive and well at Dave’s Custom Tailoring and will give your expensive clothing new life.

The amazing personal service and extended hours are just an added bonus. I can’t thank them enough for all they have done for me over the years.
