A dress that is cut on the bias breathes absolute glamour and comfort.

However, the making of garments on the bias is very tricky and requires a totally different way of thinking in terms of cutting, shaping and sewing material.

In 2014, couturier Leon Klaassen Bos developed a 5-day master class for experienced tailors to delve into the secrets of bias cut thread.

 

The online masterclass consists of videos about the technique, the history and current trends. You will learn the tricks behind the sewing and cutting techniques, as well as how to make a pattern for a garment.
During the masterclass you will make a bias cut dress, and you are guided step by step what to do; from development to finishing.

 

To gain a deeper understanding of this technique, Leon discusses the work of couturiers such as Vionnet, Galliano and Halston.
Next to the style story, you will also see how these designs and patterns were developed.

 

Using his own creations and his experience in haute couture, Leon shows how he has applied bias cut.

The goal is that you really learn to fully understand how to develop bias cut creations.

Participants will have access to the master class' YouTube channel, and experiences can be shared on the forum on Facebook. If there are any questions during this master class, Leon is at your disposal via Zoom or Whatsapp.
