QUARTERLY WORKSHOP FOR FASHION DESIGNERS: PRODUCTION PREPARATION

Presented by Rightfully Sewn at Rightfully Sewn

Are you a fashion entrepreneur looking to outsource production? Do you have an idea for a garment but are unsure how to take it from concept to consumer?

Join us for an informative session that will arm you with industry-standard tools and knowledge to successfully engage a production factory to create your garments. We will walk through the design and production process for Rightfully Sewn’s little black dress as a learning tool. This class is important for fashion entrepreneurs looking to scale their business by handing off production while ensuring consistent sizing and quality across their fashion line.

Students will:

Learn how to compile a comprehensive tech pack that includes order of operations, seam finishes, seam allowances, hem widths, cut lists, and more;
Develop a size chart for a fashion brand;
Receive instruction on how to develop a master sloper, grade a garment, and prepare production patterns;
Learn industry production terminology and resources to source fabric and notions;
Develop a cost sheet for a garment;
Understand how to properly project fabric yardage for production;
Learn about Rightfully Sewn’s small batch production services; and
Leave with a suite of materials and tools to confidently walk into any production house.
