Run the Runway

Encourage future fashion designers to bring their own clothing creations to life, taking first steps to careers in styling and design! Creative tweens and teens enjoy unplugged, hands-on entertainment as they explore every step in the fashion design process: determining a mood, sketching silhouettes, choosing fabrics, and turning their dreams into reality.

Everything's included in this kit: fabrics, embellishments, trims, sketchbook and colored pencils, easy-to-follow dress patterns, essential design tools, and 3 mannequins for assembling dresses. The best part? No sewing is required - velcro patches and adhesives help with closures. (Sewing supplies and instructions are still included for advanced crafters!) A full-color manual makes it fun and easy to learn every step of design, notable fashion history, and even tips like how to layer fabrics and upcycle their own clothing.
