Follow the making of a bespoke three-piece suit in the style
of Savile Row at the helm of one of the best British tailors, Anderson &
Sheppard. – Three tailors receive their bundles of fabric and set about
deciphering the cutter’s notes. Three weeks after a client’s measurements have
been taken, his suit will be reading for a first fitting. The jacket will have
been put together with a minimal number of seams using cotton ‘basting’ thread,
and will be prime for a next round of adjustments.
FASHION AS DESIGN is a new course by MoMA that explores a selection of garments from around the
world—ranging from Kente cloth to jeans to 3D-printed dresses. Each week will
begin with a conversation between the course instructors—Paola Antonelli,
Michelle Fisher, and Stephanie Kramer—that introduces the themes, items, and
questions that we will explore. Sign-up: http://mo.ma/fashionasdesign
