Cut and tailor your perfect Pair of Trousers (male or female)
Our Online Tailoring class teaching the making of a bespoke jacket is hugely popular with students from around the globe: learning from home, at their own pace, they are supported by our dedicated team of tutors at all times. Past and would-be students are now asking for the obvious next step: a class dedicated to the bespoke trousers.
The team obliged and designed a comprehensive yet easy-to-follow curriculum: applying tried and tested principles, we lead you through the process of making your own pair of bespoke trousers step-by-step. You have a choice between tailoring for the male or female figure type. Starting with the draft of your unique cutting pattern, we teach you to cut and fit your trousers correctly, to then conclude with a professional hand finish.
Entry Requirements: the class is suitable for participants with intermediate sewing experience. Prior experience in pattern cutting, tailoring or attendance of our online jacket class are not entry requirements.
Launching on 27 February 2026, the class will be delivered every Friday for 16 weeks, 10 am to 1pm UK time.
Instructions are provided for you to keep. A recording of each live class is made available to participants after each session, to enable self-study in your own time.
The course fee is £995 incl. VAT and includes comprehensive PDF literature, recordings of each live class and access to tutors between sessions. Places are limited and allocated on a first come first serve basis to eligible candidates.
