Do you want to understand how start a handbag collection but don't know where to begin? This accessory design course for beginners and intermediates is a uniquely structured group class aimed to support aspiring designers or designers in need of guidance in the realisation of a viable and realistic collection of bags and/or accessories.

This course allows you to develop an understanding of essential skills in accessory design and enables you to convert your ideas into reality by teaching you the steps needed in order to prototype and manufacture your collection.

This course is designed by a team of designers, prototype makers and handbag manufacturers.
It is both a theoretical and practical course which will teach you what the industry requires from designers in order to be able to understand and correctly translate their ideas into finished products.

This course is not about creating pretty drawings, but is focused on giving you an overview of the complexity and extensiveness of the process that designing a collection of handbags requires.

The course will help you in understanding what you need to search, study, look out for, find out and decide before and during designing your styles, enabling you to avoid a long, expensive and sometimes frustrating process when it is time to prototype and manufacture your collection
