"I’ve been a member of the Tailor Academy for almost two years and I’ve learned so much more in these two years than in all the years before. I don’t sew anymore, now we tailor. My works and my skills have reached a completely different level, and that through a lot of practice and learning on the project. You learn so much and in the end you have a tailor-made wardrobe in your closet! I’m a big fan of the Tailor Academy."
"Almost 6 years ago I started sewing out of boredom during my parental leave. I taught myself to sew. The sewn clothes looked accordingly – ‘homemade’. At some point, ambition got the better of me. I wanted much more: professional quality and workmanship. 2 years ago I registered for the Masterclass at the Schneider Academy. Although I haven’t finished the master class yet, I’m slowly working my way through the units […] With the Masterclass at the Tailor Academy, this is definitely possible. With each unit, my skills keep getting better and more professional."
"What I love about the master class is that I learn sewing from scratch, the videos are well explained, Stefan gives lots of professional tips and I sew things that fit perfectly. I’m learning exactly what I’ve always wanted to learn."
"What really excites and motivates me is how easy Stefan’s explanations make even complicated things, such as beautiful piped pockets or tailoring the cut! I would never have dared to sew a dirndl or a men’s jacket, in the end it was no problem at all thanks to the video instructions and great pieces of clothing were created!"
"The best thing for me is that I can tailor my own clothes directly for me. I proudly wear the creations that I can create myself through the Tailor Academy Masterclass and that all remain unique, nothing off the peg. My heart beats for the Masterclass and the family."
"Today I was able to sew my first dress, which has become a professional, although I have been sewing for many years. Sewing is the therapy that simply helps me the most. For a long time I thought about spending money on it. The videos are easy to understand and the tips from the professionals are awesome."

Genuine tailoring skills straight from the expert
Stefan Wimmer explains why we share our know-how in an online sewing class
When we first announced that we’d share our knowledge of the tailoring craft, the reactions ranged from curiosity to criticism, but for us, it was a question of ensuring the future of the trade: as one of the oldest tailor’s shops in the world, we have collected generations’ worth of knowledge and practical experience, passing on this wealth of knowledge to our numerous award-winning apprentices, master tailors and designers over the years. But more often than not, we had to send away qualified and talented people because there are many more applicants than spots.
„We are becoming more and more aware of this trend. Of course, I am pleased that so many people are interested in this beautiful craft. But at the same time it saddens me that every year we have to reject dozens of qualified applicants who want to learn our beautiful craft.“ – Stefan Wimmer
Thanks to Tailor Academy, the professional online sewing class for all levels, that limitation is now a thing of the past and thousands of people will get the chance at realising their dreams of acquiring professional dressmaking skills straight from the source.
