The Studio of Fashion & Craft is a creative learning platform by Usha that offers hands-on and online courses in sewing, fashion design, and craft. It is a space for learners to gain practical skills, connect with industry experts, and be part of a growing community of creators and enthusiasts.

Anyone with a passion for creativity can join—whether you’re a beginner, hobbyist, student, 
or aspiring entrepreneur. Our courses are designed to support different skill levels and 
learning goals.

We offer both online self-paced courses and offline studio-based programs. Topics include garment construction, machine sewing, boutique skills, embroidery, and more. Each course is taught by experienced faculty and is structured to be hands-on and outcome driven.

We currently have two studios: one in Mumbai and another in Chennai. These are fully equipped, state-of-the-art spaces designed to provide an immersive and inspiring environment for offline learners. You can check the location for both studios on the Learn page under Academic Calendar.

Progress is tracked through project submissions, quizzes, and skill-based assessments. Offline learners are assessed in person, while online learners upload their work for review by our faculty or support team.
