Our fashion design summer programs are open admission. Instructors will work with your child at their level. Students will improve and learn new skills, whether they are a beginner or have been designing for years.

Tools are provided, but if you already have your own, please bring them with you. A toolbox should include a decent pair of fabric scissors, a stitch/seam ripper, a thimble, a packet of sewing needles, straight pins, paper scissors, and a ruler—or at least some of these items that you already have. Please keep them in a container, box, or basket that can be closed and will protect you from sharp-pointed objects.

A sketchbook to use on their own time for drafting ideas and collecting inspirations.

Bring your choice of fabric if you have specific garments that you like to create during this ����ֱ�� Program.

Your own hats, scarves, gloves, boots etc. can also be incorporated into your total look for the fashion show!

Students spend most of their days in the Fashion Studio working on assignments and creative projects under the guidance of their instructors. A major focus is preparing for the final culmination, the fashion show at the end of the session. Throughout the process, teachers and students work closely together, discussing ideas and developing designs to achieve each student’s individual goals. The studio is filled with excitement and energy as students take meaningful steps toward becoming fashion designers.

Lindsey March, a California native, developed a passion for the arts at an early age, beginning with dance. After graduating from high school a year early, she joined McDonald Selznick Associates, a leading dance and commercial agency in Los Angeles. Her professional dance career includes appearances in music videos, television commercials, and live performances, alongside her education as a scholarship student at Edge Performing Arts Center. As a founding member of Darling Stilettos, an all-girl rock band formed by Matt Sorum of Guns N’ Roses, Lindsey merged her love for music and fashion by launching a collection of rock-inspired apparel, including screen-printed tees, hoodies, and customized hand-painted denim jackets.

Transitioning from music to fashion, Lindsey became a Senior Stylist at Stitch Fix while also working as a freelance e-commerce and fashion stylist. She enhanced her fashion expertise at a boutique school in downtown Los Angeles, studying Fashion Merchandising and Design under renowned designer Kentaro Kameyama. Lindsey has since held positions with top showrooms and sales agents in Los Angeles, collaborating with notable brands such as Nike Swim & Accessories, Calvin Klein, Timberland, Levi’s, and Tommy Hilfiger. Additionally, she creates custom denim pieces for musicians, including Glen Sobel of Alice Cooper, further showcasing her unique blend of fashion and music.
