Lesson Overview Who: Johannes – Brand owner and Central Saint Martins graduate with experience in celebrity dressing and industry experience in luxury couture houses Techniques & methodology: Practice-led, studio-based teaching combining draping on the body, pattern making, sewing, and portfolio development, tailored to individual goals Lesson length: Typically 90 minutes, allowing time for hands-on making, discussion, and feedback Who the lessons are for: Students aged 16+, including foundation, BA, and MA applicants, as well as early-career designers seeking portfolio refinement or industry insight Languages: English and German Focus: University applications, professional portfolios, technical development, and understanding industry expectations I am the founder of the fashion brand Johannes and an actively practising designer, bringing an industry-focused approach to teaching. I support students in developing strong, competitive portfolios for university applications and professional roles, with clear guidance on concept development, editing, and presentation aligned with current academic and industry expectations. My professional work includes designing and dressing international artists such as Björk, Lady Gaga, Grimes, Kylie Jenner, Megan Thee Stallion, Rina Sawayama, and Post Malone for performances, editorials, and public appearances. This experience gives students direct insight into professional standards, timelines, and the realities of working under pressure within the fashion industry. My technical foundation is shaped by experience in couture and luxury fashion environments including Viktor&Rolf, Givenchy, Balmain, and bespoke tailoring ateliers. My teaching covers draping, pattern making, sewing, and hand-based construction techniques, with a strong focus on fit, proportion, and translating ideas into technically resolved garments. I offer targeted guidance on what universities are looking for at foundation, BA, and MA level: from creative curiosity and process at foundation stage, to technical skill, concept development, and visual clarity at BA level, through to research depth, authorship, and critical positioning at MA level. I work closely with students to ensure their portfolios clearly communicate both creative identity and readiness for academic or professional progression. I am fluent in German and, with formal training in painting, can also support students in developing visual research, composition, and fine art–led portfolio work where relevant.

I absolutely adore my time spent with Brigitte. Not only is she an incredibly skilled sewing instructor, but she also goes above and beyond in imparting her wealth of knowledge about the fashion industry, fabrics, and materials. This aspect has been invaluable to me, considering my lack of formal education in fashion. Brigitte's expertise shines through as she generously shares extra insights from textbooks, which have proven particularly beneficial in my endeavors, such as creating corsets and stays. Moreover, her guidance extends beyond mere craftsmanship; she educates on the importance of accurately pricing garments to ensure profitability—a testament to her comprehensive approach. Thanks to her mentorship, I've experienced significant growth and am eagerly looking forward to advancing further under her tutelage.

We had highly informative, engaging, and inspiring lessons with Nancy. We started with fashion illustrations and the intricacies of technical drawing, then progressed to deep discussions about brand identity and the creative process. We also explored collection creation, along with the business and marketing aspects of a fashion company. I was pleasantly surprised by Nancy’s depth of highly practical and applicable knowledge, as well as the expertise she possesses in both fashion and marketing. I am looking forward to our future lessons and continuing to learn from her. I highly recommend Nancy as a very talented, friendly, and professional teacher.

I’m so grateful to Anna! She has such a high level of expertise, and her advices were very helpful for me (I had three consultations about my portfolio). I love her way of teaching — so structured, you can apply everything she is telling you right away. Also, I was charmed by her ability to go deeply into my meaning, understand my ideas, and share her views on how to enhance them. And as a person, Anna is so attentive, considerate, and kind. I will definitely turn to Anna again when I need help. Thank you so much, Anna. I’m so happy I found you, wish you all the best! :)
