From plane to volume
The activity is intended to teach some of the concepts of form and geometry to be found in Balenciaga’s creations. The children create different geometric figures on a two-dimensional pattern and then resolve simple problems to obtain three-dimensional pieces that fit the human body.

Fashion, a time machine
The central theme of this activity is the way in which customs and fashions in clothes have developed. Students analyse transformations in clothing and the relationship between those changes and certain historical, economic and social developments. They look at some of similarities and differences between women’s clothes in the past and present and then create their own designs in the workshop.
