Dear fellow tailor,

Mowgli and I must raise
£100,000 by 1 October 2025  to start our "Alterations Video Library" project. We need your support today.

This FREE library will have 200+ videos of individual alterations, indexed by seam. Each video shows a fitting problem, followed by the pattern corrections and final results with side-by-side comparisons.

You will learn to fit in minutes, not days. This will be the most important tailoring project of the century. And you can be part of it by funding it today.

If you ever wanted to change the world, now is your chance. Please join us in making a giant leap in the history of tailoring education.

Thank you,

Reza, Founder of International School of Tailoring

Watch this snippet from Lesson 34. The videos in The Alteration Library will be an enhanced version of this presentation style. This library will make fittings as easy as finding directions with GPS.

Jacket Patterns

You will begin your journey by creating garments from commercial patterns. Soon you'll attempt to draft your own patterns with dot-to-dot and proportional systems from old books. Unfortunately these produce block patterns and won't address the nuances of your physique.

 

Learning tailoring is damn frustrating. Why? Because you're trying to solve a big riddle made of smaller ones. Our online coat-making course guides you through these smaller riddles step by step and allows you to focus on solving one at a time.

 

When learning with us, you'll use our Traditional and Pagoda Model patterns. These are Reza's personal body patterns. Since the pattern is not yours, you'll concentrate on first learning the basic construction  techniques without being overwhelmed by other factors.

 

While these patterns are included in your Purple Box course bundle, we've also made them available as free pdf downloads here. All our large-scale patterns can be easily printed at home using a desktop printer.

Watch Reza mark and cut out the Traditional Model. Orange linen included in your Purple Box.
