With the growth of the internet, local businesses now have the opportunity to go global. Businesses that were once limited to local regions now have the chance to attract customers worldwide. Among the local companies that have seen significant growth in recent years, we came across Doukht Bartar, an Iranian tailoring education platform founded by an entrepreneurial woman named Masoumeh Mohammadi Alghaar. With over 25 years of experience in teaching tailoring, she has managed to educate more than 85,000 people through this website alone, setting new records in online education.
Furthermore, with a one-year online support program, she has guided her students through mastering tailoring skills and entering the job market. Two hundred people work at Doukht Bartar under her supervision to provide this support to students.
From In-Person Training to Fully Online Education
She has published over 100 tailoring instructional books and is known as the tailoring genius of Iran. Masoumeh Mohammadi Alghaar started teaching tailoring many years ago with in-person classes in schools and tailoring institutes. Later, she added tailoring magazines to her educational methods, published numerous instructional books, and began teaching via Instagram by establishing a social media presence. She then launched Doukht Bartar, which has more than 1.2 million followers on Instagram.
Doukht Bartar has revolutionised tailoring education in Iran, ushering in a new era of tailoring instruction. Doukht Bartar is now the largest tailoring education institute in Iran and possibly the world, offering students innovative and modern online tailoring education.
A revolution in tailoring education
Doukht Bartar is more than just an educational platform: “It is a movement to elevate tailoring education globally and create the next generation of global entrepreneurs in the fashion industry. We’ve been doing this for five years and are excited to share this knowledge with the world,” said Masoumeh Mohammadi Alghaar in an earlier interview.
One reason for Doukht Bartar’s growth is the specialised courses offered by this educational platform. These courses teach specific techniques and intricate details of tailoring, and students receive professional-level training by watching them.
“Doukht Bartar is a fully online academy that has abandoned traditional methods. It allows individuals to learn high-quality tailoring anytime and anywhere without any limitations.” says Masoumeh Mohammadi.

The Doukht Bartar website offers online tailoring courses including basic tailoring, golden tailoring techniques, fine tailoring, manteau tailoring, tailoring with the Turkish method, children’s clothing, summer clothing packages, thick fabric tailoring, fashion design and colour theory, knitting, bridal wear, and more. One feature that makes these courses appealing to students is the ability to watch the lessons repeatedly but with online live support.
The entry of Masoumeh Mohammadi Alghaar into the global tailoring education market
Masoumeh Mohammadi alghaar, this Iranian entrepreneur, wants to expand tailoring education to other countries using the innovative methods she has tested with Doukht Bartar. She aims to ensure that people everywhere can access professional tailoring education online, with 24/7 support, so that no one is deprived of these learnings and the fashion industry opportunities.
