Elena strongly states that conventional pattern making can be completely replaced by draping with outstanding results. Draping is flexible multiverse practice adaptable to any type of garment. The virtuous artistry of draping and its immediately observable outcome makes this method preferable. At the end, the result of finalized draping of certain garment gives completed look of the garment prototype and provides patterns set as well. Thus draping is pattern making per se. Moreover by presenting Ultimate draping Elena has overcame constraints of known framework of the academic course as it is became not only a tool for learning but the roadmap to design. From one video to the next she shows the draping steps clearly, makes invaluable remarks, explanations and advises. Draping design is coming from Elena finger tips as soon as she touches the fabric. Therefore students who watch her video-lessons are turned to be the participants of “magic”. It is to say without hesitation, those of students who have a clear goal and perseverance can become accomplished designers and cloths makers after passing the Elena's Ultimate draping course.
Package No 2 Draping garment inspired by fashion history
Through this program students will be introduced to the draping mastery as a skillful method of designing jackets and creating patterns directly on the dress form. The particular design of each garment introduced in the course is not a replica of a historical item. Elena's design is unique. In each module Elena showcases specific approaches where design, draping, pattern making and tailoring coming together as one challenge. Her work in general is rather an attempt to replicate, reproduce not the actual garment but the essential approaches to garment fabrication in "old" times and make use of the forgotten practices, giving them a new life; though it is a mix of both - the old and the contemporary ways to garment creation.
