Becoming a French Stylist
Calling all fashion lovers! In this private, hands-on workshop, you’ll join Lou, a Parisian stylist, in her charming atelier, tucked away in one of the city’s artisan neighborhoods.
You’ll begin by selecting your preferred project: either creating a hand-sewn custom piece from scratch, or designing an upcycled sleeveless vest using vintage fabrics. Lou will help you try on base models, take measurements, and choose from a wide array of beautiful fabrics.
From there, you’ll cut, stitch, and personalize your garment step by step, with hand-sewing techniques passed down through generations. For those who want, sewing machines are also available to assist with certain steps. By the end, you’ll leave with your own unique, made-to-measure creation and a new appreciation for timeless Parisian craftsmanship.
