Design Download

Launched on 30 May 2002 — ongoing

In 2002 SHOWstudio launched the first Design Download - a series offering prestigious designer garment patterns for free, seeking to demystify and democratise the fashion process. SHOWstudio viewers are gifted a unique opportunity to study, interpret and construct intricate runway pieces, and invited to submit the results to inspire future learners. In some years chosen viewers have won prizes for their submissions, from original art to fashion films featuring their garment.
