Learn how to make latex clothing from start to finish at this one-day intensive workshop in Hackney.
This comprehensive activity will provide you with the theory necessary to adapt commercial patterns for latex, guiding you through the whole cutting and gluing process on a variety of shapes. Besides covering common technical skills like adding zips, trims, and bones, you'll also be encouraged to experiment with more creative techniques to inspire you.
With a maximum of three students per course, you are guaranteed to receive eight hours of tailored tuition with plenty of personal attention and support. Depending on your speed and expertise, you can choose to bring a simple pattern and have a go at creating a professionally finished garment. If you have any special requests or topics you'd like assistance with during the workshop, you can let your teacher know in advance.
You will leave this immersive session with newfound confidence in latex construction, taking home a folder full of fun exercises and your first project ready to wear.

Hi, I’m Caterina, the founder of Kraken Counter Couture, a London-based atelier where I combine couture craftsmanship with irreverent, playful ideas. Originally from Italy, I trained in Haute Couture and Millinery before moving to London, where I earned a First-Class degree in Fashion Design at London College of Fashion.
I’ve been teaching workshops for over eight years, helping people discover the joy of making clothes that truly express who they are. My passion for teaching comes from seeing that moment when a student realises they can create something with their own hands - something unique that fits them perfectly. It’s empowering, and I love being part of that transformation.
Over the years, I’ve shared my knowledge with hundreds of students from across the globe in intimate settings, always keeping my classes fairly small (never more than 3 people) so everyone gets personal guidance. I’ve worked across fashion, music, and stage industries, creating bespoke designs that celebrate individuality and inclusivity.
Something many people don’t know is how much craft and couture can be liberating - whether it’s the precision of bespoke tailoring or the wild creativity of latex design, I want my workshops to be safe, welcoming spaces where people feel free to experiment, make mistakes, and celebrate their originality.
If you join one of my workshops, you’ll not only gain technical skills but also the confidence to bring your ideas to life. And above all -you’ll have fun doing it!
