Autumn Fashion School – Design your autumn wardrobe!

admin — Wed, 31 Aug 2011 10:32:57 +0000

Hi all
We’re already planning our autumn fashion school (no rest for the wicked!) which is in October half-term. We’ll have a week of fashion design, fun and friends so if you’ve never been to one of our fashion design workshops or fashion schools then ask around as you’ll probably know someone that already has and they can tell you how much fun they are! Our workshops are perfect for children, kids, and young people of all ages and we make sure that you are working at the right level so that you learn new skills and impress yourself with what you can create. We’ll add updates very soon about what we’ll be making.

Creating a fabulous summer

Hi designers
We’ve been having a gorgeous summer, and our summer fashion schools have been better than ever. Thank you to all of our young designers who have amazed us with your creativity, enthusiasm and fresh ideas. It is always so rewarding to see all of you come away with new friends and new outfits that could be shop-bought. We’re already planning the Autumn season of our fashion design after-school courses and holiday schools and watch this space for our new offer for 5 – 8 years.
See you soon

Spreading the fashion word!

admin — Sat, 25 Jun 2011 07:03:10 +0000

Hi all
We hope you’re looking forward to a long hot summer. We’re getting prepared for 5 weeks of Fashion Summer School and can’t wait. Hopefully you’ve seen us around Bucks as we’ve been doing a mini tour promoting our workshops. We’ve been at Lane End Youth Club, Eden Centre twice in the last month and we’re at the Feast of St Peter in Chalfont St Peter later today. We’re doing a free taster session at West Wycombe Library next Thursday and are also working with local brownie groups and various schools. Hopefully we’ll see you at one of our events soon, and if you would like us to come to your school or youth group then please give us a shout. See you soon x

Sizzling Summer

admin — Wed, 04 May 2011 07:39:56 +0000

Hey fashion designers

Sorry we’ve not been great at updating the blog recently – we’ve been sidetracked giving the website a bit of a makeover instead. Which got us all thinking – maybe we needed to give ourselves a makeover while we’re at it! So here at iFashionDesign headquarters we’ve been looking at our wardrobes and forcing ourselves to be more creative. So rather than putting that skirt with that top that we’ve done 300 times already, or sticking the whole lot in the charity bag in a rage, we’re embracing the Summer by working with the wardrobe we’ve got (OK so maybe there’ll be a few sneaky new purchases!)

So the challenge is this – can you create 2 weeks of new outfits from what you’ve already got in your wardrobe to look and feel fabulous for the next fortnight?

See you soon, Claire x
