If your design ideas are still developing or you’re not sure what to do next with your vision, we can help you bring them to reality! In this program, we work with you one-on-one to clarify your concepts in detail. You’ll learn what it takes to get your design developed and into manufacture in the most cost-effective way possible. At the end of the course, you will have created a concept board for each design and be able to thoroughly explain your vision to others.
Through our understanding of garment construction and fabric behavior, we build your pattern using true-to-life 3D garment simulation and industry standard dress forms to ensure the fit is perfect. Make changes on the fly, reduce fabric waste, and approve your designs before committing to the costs of sewn samples.
Using your finished pattern and final material selection, we bring dimension to your design with a real-life sample for you to approve for style, fit and finish. Once your design is perfect, we can grade your pattern and create size ranges and charts for your brand.
Small batch or large scale production, we can help you with 5 to 25 units to test the market, or transition you a larger scale manufacturer for quantities over 200.
Combine your pattern and sample with a tech pack, and you’ll have a pre-production package that gets you to manufacture faster and at a lower cost. Our comprehensive and thorough tech packs include scaled sketches, annotations, sewing instructions, bill of materials, pattern parts list and more. We create tech packs for both new designers and existing businesses currently in production.
If you are an established business branching into apparel or sewn goods, we offer hourly consultation to help you navigate the process of development and production. $150/hour
Let’s work together to get your new sewn product launched and promoted. An important step is a professional, well-built website that presents your product in the best light and converts visitors into buyers.
