We’ve all had tens and maybe even hundreds of fashion pieces with absolutely no idea what to do with them. They end up on our chairs in our bedrooms until they don’t fit us anymore, then get thrown away.

At the same time, when we want to give ourselves a makeover, we always assume that we should buy new clothes and because of how expensive everything has become, we give up.

Don’t worry, though; you can now make the best out of what you already got!

CHL, Maison Léon is launching a 101 fashion and styling course for beginners. This course is focused on teaching you the basics of fashion and style to help you redecorate your closet and transform old or worn-out clothes into the trendy looks.

The “How to Revamp Your Closet (For Beginners) “course starts on October 2nd until October 30th, where you will be completing 72 hours of work.

The course offers a holistic approach to fashion covering theoretical and practical work to give you a jump start into design and styling. And most importantly allow you to have fun with what you’ve got in your closet. Whether it be that worn-out dress or the pants, they don’t fit the same.

The course will be divided into two groups:

Session 1 on Friday at 10 AM- 2 PM, and session 2 on Tuesday at 6 PM- 10 PM. Overall the course covers 72 hours of work at the studio and home.
