Whether you're pursuing a career in fashion and want some inspiration for your portfolio or you're after a gift experience for the fashionista in your life, this two-hour intimate life drawing experience is a brilliant way to go behind the scenes of the creative processes of fashion.
Set In the creative hub of Hackney Wick, you'll be hosted by the visionary experts at DCC studios. Sit within the bespoke hand-painted set designs in real life, with professional studio lighting and study couture garment details close up.
Built into a bespoke set design by Matthew Lawrence and modelled by industry-leading agency models and professional dancers, you'll be guided through the class from a painters perspective to really enhance your drawing skills and creative eye, whether you're a complete beginner or an improver.
Each session will be covering a different subject, from award-winning haute couture designers to burlesque costume and more, so you're always sure to discover some fresh inspiration. Everything you need will be ready and waiting for you, so all you need to do is show up and flex those creative muscles.
