Full workshop making latex clothes
You know what you want .... you want to make your own latex clothing. To save costs or to make something other than what is in store, or to make for others, or to start your own business and webshop etc. Then the entire workshop Making Latex Clothing yourself is really something for you! A complete workshop with theory and of course lots of practice! First theory, then we practice latex well and then you make your own piece of clothing! Even if you have no experience with fashion, making clothes or are not creative ... this workshop will work!
A to the point technical workshop ... we teach you the technique of sticking, but also how to place a zipper, how to place snaps and nets etc. After this workshop you are perfectly capable of really wearing all kinds of latex clothing. make.
You need 0.0 experience. Actually... the less you know about making clothes, the more successful you will be... sounds strange but after 15 years of giving latex workshops that's our conclusion....
What can you do?
● Ladies skirt
● Women's halter top (you make the closure at home, pattern is not suitable for large breasts because it is without underwire)
● Ladies slip, thong, hipster
● Gloves without fingers
● Men's boxer (challenge ... many parts!)
● Men's tank top (= tshirt / vest without sleeves)
● Men's briefs
Needless to say... ladies can make menswear and gentlemen can make womenswear...for yourself or for someone else, so choose what you really want to make!
Is your size greater than 100 cm? Then we recommend that you buy extra latex if you are going to make a skirt or a tank top.
These are basic patterns, so that everyone can go home with a self-made piece of clothing. Mind you ... 4 hours seems long but is sometimes too short for beginners to finish. E.e.a. depends on ... smoking breaks ... call pause, chat pause, facebook pause, lots of talking / little talking etc. However, for most people it is perfectly feasible to get the garment off.
You can also bring your own pattern...provided that it is already completely ready-made, in the right size, cut out of paper, so that it can be transferred directly to the latex and can be made from a piece of latex of 100 cm x 100 cm.
We cannot guarantee that a garment based on your own pattern in the workshop can be finished in the 4 hour workshop.
Unfortunately, there is no time to extensively adjust / change patterns. We will of course make the aforementioned basic patterns compatible with you!
So we're not going to undress either....
After this workshop you are perfectly capable of executing all patterns in latex! Ladies, gentlemen, crea bea, construction worker or two left hands ... really anyone can make latex clothing themselves ... really!
