A class day

Four photos. That’s the flow.

You don’t sit and listen. You measure, fold, and wear it.
Sit together
01

Sit together

Hands-on at the table. Silk in front of you, Simla guiding.

Take measurements

The fun part — you wear what you just made.

Why learn here

Taught by someone who does this every day

Practical, not theory-only

You measure, fold, and drape. The class is built around doing the work with your own hands.

Styles clients actually ask for

Box folding, semi-fluffy, and full-fluffy hanger — the same styles used in Simla Syam’s service work.

A path into business

It is not only a hobby class. You leave with techniques you can use to serve clients of your own.

Class questions

No. The basic class starts from measurements and box folding. You can join advanced after you are comfortable with the basics.
