Cad for fashion taught me loads of cheeky techniques to speed up my designing, I’ve been... designing 8 years now and it’s great to have access to Erica who is so up to date with the latest developments in both illustrator and photoshop for myself. My team really benefitted from this and already use these techniques daily. Additionally I’ve been on the watercolour paint and photoshop manipulation course and found these highly enjoyable and inspirational. It’s great to add more to the portfolio that can open doors in the future.read more

Although I’m not a designer, I have to use Illustrator & Photoshop most days at work to amend CAD... designs & promotional offers. Erica tailored a half day course to suit my needs & specific requirements. She was so helpful in demonstrating every step & explaining each of my queries. I have picked up so many useful tools & skills which has been amazing in aiding my work. Erica has also kindly assisted with any queries I’ve had since the course over email. I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing assistance with Illustrator/Photoshop. I’m amazed at what I’m now able to do compared to before with just a few hours tuition!!read more

I recently met Erica for a two hour Photoshop cad fashion training session. Having never used... Photoshop software before (and also being slightly scared of it!) I came away with complete clarity and a thorough step by step guide (and good notes) for the areas I needed to know. I have now been able to use that knowledge and notes to sit down and create my first collection, something I had no idea of being able to do before the training. Erica is an excellent teacher, quickly picking up how fast/slow to go and when to go over things if it hasn't quite sunk it. I will certainly be booking Erica again for the next time. A thoroughly enjoyable morning. Anna. The Little Style House.read more

I booked a series of sessions with Erica for portfolio work. She demonstrated different techniques... to enhance my work and made layout suggestions, sparking ideas and enabling me to develop my portfolio between each session. Her tips on scale, alignment and the positioning of text and images enabled me to create a comprehensive portfolio that I am really pleased with. Erica has the ability to take on board my needs and tailor each session to specific tasks. Her suggestions enabled me to think about how I could approach tasks in different ways, using a variety of techniques. Sessions with Erica built on my existing knowledge and increased my confidence when using Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator.read more

I'm currently studying Fashion at university and had a sound understanding of both Illustrator and... Photoshop. However, my work was fairly standard and I wasn't exactly sure where to progress. During the time I spent with Erica, I found this was no longer an issue. I saw a huge improvement in my CAD work through her tutoring, where she was able to give me guidance on both programs. She was gave me tips on different tools within the programs and advice on how to improve aspects of my work. I've found not only is my work a better standard, but I'm able to produce things a lot faster due to more efficient methods. I'd wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking to advance their CAD work, especially given her friendly nature, patience and willingness to teach others.read more

CAD for Fashion is a warm and inviting space making it easy to learn. Erica is a dream of a... teacher- She is so patient and knowledgeable, I didn't want to leave at the end of the day!

I did a 2 day course with Erica at CAD for Fashion, it was super informative and enjoyable; and I... learnt more tips, tricks and techniques using Illustrator over those 2 days than I did during my entire 3 years at university! It's really great that the class sizes are so small too, it means you can really get some one-on-one guidance tailored towards what you need from the course. I would 100% recommend CAD for Fashion to all industry professionals, from beginners to those looking to hone their skills - Erica is a welcoming and patient tutor with so much helpful knowledge. Totally worth it for the memory stick full of handouts, templates and illustrator brushes alone! ;) Thanks again Erica - hoping to come back again soon!read more

CAD for fashion is a perfect place to learn new skills! Erica has set up a studio in a funky but... very historical building- which goes perfectly with her creative business. Recently, I went to a workshop that Erica had put on with Jess Priest. The hospitality, support and attentiveness that Erica had shown with her team was lovely and I am now looking forward to book future workshops. Definitely a place to further/refresh your skills.read more
