Online education subscription platform MasterClass has revealed that fashion designers Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia, co-founders of luxury fashion label Monse, have taught a class on creative collaboration and fashion.

The objective of the class is for students to discover how to design a piece of clothing from a storyboard concept and turn it into a ready-to-wear garment, as well as learn how to plan a fashion show.

Additionally, the designers aim to show the students how to create partnerships and use collaboration as a means of building a business, they will do this by drawing on their own experiences in the fashion industry.

David Rogier, founder and CEO of MasterClass, said in a statement: “Laura and Fernando's distinct vision and point of view at both Oscar de la Renta and Monse has redefined the fashion industry. In their class, they will break down their fashion journey, teaching members the principles for building strong business partnerships and launching new brands together."

Fernando Garcia commented: “Maintaining a healthy, collaborative partnership is the key component to our creative process. In our class, Laura and I will highlight how we work together as a team to bring our visions to life, build a brand that we are continually proud of and empower members with practical advice to excel in their own business ventures.”

Laura Kim added: “After working our way up in the fashion world, learning directly from one of the biggest names in the industry and starting our own label, Fernando and I are excited to share a closer look at our creative process. In our class, members will learn everything from fittings to collection editing to sketching designs and draping fabric so that they can transform their creative inspiration into a tangible outcome.”
