Jessie LN Feb 21, 2013:
US/UK In the UK, the most common term for this type of class is "Dressmaking". These classes normally require students to already possess basic sewing skills. If the course includes making men's clothing as well, it could be "Dressmaking and Tailoring". Both require making patterns...

Margaret Schroeder Feb 21, 2013:
Fixed category I was debating between Education or Clothing.
Yvonne Gallagher Feb 21, 2013:
This is Law?

Sewing and Dressmaking

An equivalent course in an English-speaking country would have this or a similar name.

I think Michelle’s and Cecilia’s answers would also be correct.

Spanish term (edited): Corte y Confección

Pattern-making and Sewing

As a former student of "Corte y Confección", I know for a fact that it involves learning to make patterns based on person's measurements and then sewing. (Sastrería) Tailoring is a whole different class!
