Rethink Fit: The Power of the Fluid Approach

A Three-Day Summer Design Blueprint Workshop

Dates 18–20 August 2026
Days Tue–Thu
Location London
Places Limited to 8
For Fashion Practitioners

The fashion industry has a sizing problem—and current solutions are not fit for purpose. What if the answer isn't adding more sizes to the grid, but redefining the grid entirely?

Rethink Fit — Start thinking around the body, to design a more hopeful future for fashion

Redefining the Grid

In trying to accommodate an infinite variety of human shapes through static, 2D grading systems, we've created a loop of consumer frustration and mountain-sized inventory waste. Diversified sizing was meant to be a solution, but it has largely driven overproduction and skyrocketing return rates.

Welcome to Rethink Fit, a hands-on, three-day summer workshop designed for fashion designers, industry professionals, early career practitioners, and postgraduate students who want to challenge traditional fit paradigms through the physics and artistry of innovative design.

We believe a hopeful, sustainable future for fashion lies in changing how fabric interacts with form.

The Thesis

By exploring how fabric rotates, drapes, and dynamically responds to the body in motion we can create garments that naturally adapt to the wearer, reducing the need for infinite size variations and dramatically cutting down industry waste.

What We Will Do Together

You don't need expert skills to join this revolution. We have removed the barrier of on-site production so we can focus on the value of experimentation. Using specially designed, highly flexible prefab garment kits, we will collaborate to explore how a rethought approach can change everything.

Deconstruct Fit

Analyse why traditional sizing fails the modern consumer and how dynamic pattern cutting can intervene.

Explore with Design Innovation Kits

Work with adaptable, pre-fabricated garment structures designed for maximum variability. Adjust, drape, and morph them instantly—no construction required. Take home a designed garment of your choosing to keep exploring.

Test the Weight of Cloth

Experiment with how the exact same methodology behaves across a spectrum of different fabric weights.

Redefine the Rules

Collectively analyse how inherently fluid forms might replace the rigid, wasteful sizing systems of the past to reflect emerging sustainable practice.

Investment

Your place includes all three full days of hands-on workshop, materials, prefab garment kits, a designed garment of your choosing to take home, and a certificate of completion. Limited to just 8 participants to ensure an intimate, collaborative experience.
