Mid-block on 38th between 5th and 6th, the studio feels more like an extension of the garment district than a standalone school. Named after its founder, the space quietly churns out new pattern-makers every season between intimate pattern drafting workshops and intensive color theory labs. Evening figure-drawing sessions draw stalwarts who circle back to their own work invigorated, while the weekend accessory intensives push students to weld metal findings and sculpt leather without stepping into Chelsea. Find it at 66 West 38th Street between 5th and 6th in Manhattan if you want to trace stitches back to their source. A call will set your foot inside when the next intimate pattern drafting workshop opens its roster; reach Hannah at the studio to ask what’s already on the calendar. Evening figure-drawing happens nightly, yet the quietest way to scope the place remains the public layers on the map—more stitches, fewer feet.
