Not all Camp Couture workshops and classes are help in the Philadelphia area. I am also happy to travel to your location to teach workshops & classes on a wide variety of subjects, ranging from lectures on my personal experiences "Working in the Haute Couture" to advanced draping demonstrations like "Draping in Mid Air" or "Tension & Suspension Systems" to half day or multi-day hands-on workshops such as the "Brilliant Bias" or "Custom Busk-Front Back-Laced Corset". A partial list of class offerings is listed below. If you are a college or sewing organization designing a fashion weekend for your group, you may select several of the half day workshops to put together on a single day and consider adding a PowerPoint lecture for the opening night of the weekend with cocktails or desserts & coffee to kick off the weekend in style and give your attendees a chance to show off their own skills by wearing their creations to the party/lecture. For costs & travel arrangements, see below. 2010-2011 calendar of travel teaching Recent calendar of travel teaching To read about an evening lecture in my 2008 travel teaching weekend in Portland, Oregon go to http://portland.metblogs.com/2008/02/10/an-evening-with-pamela-ptak/ or http://portland.metblogs.com/2008/02/07/pam-ptak-lecture-on-haute-couture/ Partial List of Available Workshops - Lectures - "Working in the Haute Couture" - 1/2 day lecture with PowerPoint show "Controlling Space & Commanding the Room" - 1/2 day lecture "When Lingerie was Made by Hand" - 1/2 day lecture with PowerPoint show Classes - "Defying Gravity...Dress as Architecture" draping demos/trunk show/lecture-1/2 day "Free Draping on the Dress Form" draping demos, trunk show, lecture - 1/2 day or Full day "Couture Insertions" step-by-step demos, trunk show, lecture - 1/2 day "Advanced Design w/ Flat Pattern Making" step-by-step demos, trunk show, lecture - Full day "Principals of Fine Corset Making" step-by-step demos, trunk show, lecture - Full day "Couture Hand Sewing & Embellishing" step-by-step demos, trunk show, lecture - 1/2 day Costs & Travel Arrangements - Since 2003, my travel teaching price per day has been $1,000.
