Design &  Make truly unique clothing that fits and flatters you!  

"

Joining the Academy has been life changing!

What I have learned since becoming a founder member of the fashionACADEMY has been instrumental in advancing my skills not just as a sewer but as a designer and pattern making - I would never have delved into the designing and pattern making elements if I hadn’t joined the Academy.

I have been sewing clothes for 30+ years and worked with commercial patterns for most of that time but what I’m learning through the Academy is how to make and design clothes that compliment my figure, fit me correctly and are unique.

Learning about research, creating mood boards, sketching designs and selecting the right fabric and really thinking about all the elements of what goes into creating wonderful garments is helping me develop my skills.

The resources and tutorials available through the Academy are also fabulous tools to have to help me on this creative journey.

Thank you Isabelle for sharing your knowledge and passion!"

My passion has come back again!

When I first started the academy I wasn't sure what to expect. I was an undergrad University student at the time and had learnt a little bit of designing but never given the time to expand on it.

When first reaching out to Isabelle it was in the hopes of gaining a placement at her design studio. However years later I am still learning and developing new skills and ideas that I never would have learnt in university.

My passion has come back again and I don't feel I doubt myself as I did before.

I have so much more to learn but I feel a lot more confident than before joining the academy, and am excited about what the future holds."

I have loved learning from Isabelle!

After feeling stuck in my sewing journey and lacking in confidence to explore my own creativity, I have been delighted to be part of Isabelle's fashionACADEMY.

Isabelle's friendly and supportive nature creates a joyful and supportive space where everyone is respected regardless of where one may be in terms of their development.

The video tutorials allow for repeat viewings of Isabelle's expert teaching to help with learning skills at a pace that suits all individuals.

The regular zoom calls are fantastic for 'show & tell' or for discussions that build the sense of community and connection with members dotted around the world!

Above all else, I have loved learning from Isabelle. Her friendly, caring and bright personality is such a joy! Isabelle's knowledge, experience and personal skills are wonderfully inspiring!

If you are looking to increase your confidence and explore your unique creative expression through fashion design and sewing, then definitely enrol and try this for yourself.

My last tip is that the people who are active in having a go and prepared to make mistakes and grow from feedback will prosper greatly from Isabelle's teaching.

So jump in and commit fully! You won't regret investing in yourself. Have fun!"

I have gained in confidence!

I have been in the Isabelle Randall fashion Academy for just over a year. I love it!

Through the Academy I have gained in confidence in developing and making my own designs. The Academy teaches all the skills required, research into designers and creative practice, pattern cutting and advanced sewing skills.

The Academy has enabled me to design and make my own garments and enjoy wearing them out to special events with no concern of meeting someone wearing anything remotely similar.

Being part of a creative design community is very motivational and provides a platform to share and develop ideas."
