This course on the history of costume from the 15th century to the first decades of the 19th century focuses on European and American fashion.
The classes are one-on-one personalized lessons based on your level of knowledge of the subject, diverse training needs and the historical period (century or decade) of interest.
These classes are suitable also for beginners, they are held online or at Elaine's Couture studio and they are strictly theoretical lessons.
They are weekly and each lasts from 2 to 4 hours.
The cost of the lessons is 35 euros per hour.
The classes must be booked at least 7 business days in advance and the attendant must specify the historical period of interest and his/hers/their skill/knowledge level towards the subject of interest; class dates must be agreed before purchasing the service.

Since these are lectures, it isn't necessary to purchase materials or supplies. Each attendant is required to take notes because no lecture notes will be supplied at the end of each class (with the exception of the list of works or museum pieces examined or shown during the lecture).
