Phase #1- Research, Development & Theme of New Collection

WINNING COLOR, FABRICS/DESIGN IDEAS by our freelance fashion designers :  

The fashion/apparel/garment designer researches fabrics, silhouettes, market trends & your desired customer first before starting any collection development or design sketches. We take this research seriously as freelance fashion designers and apply it to the theme & development of the collection. We research your customer’s demographics, who they are, their buying habits, etc. We will scan the market for at the moment styles, runway shows, editorial magazines & in store visits. However, we pride ourselves in being more of a fashion leader, not a follower. This is where we shine and are proud to be our own freelance fashion designer team. Mood boards & color grouping will begin to form. Some fabric sections and color groupings begin to be developed. A virtual mood board & trend report will be furnished to client in this phase.

The world of apparel development | garment & clothing manufacturer is not as glamorous as it looks. From demographic and trend research, finding your brand’s voice, and narrowing down your collection can be a overwhelming. We are here to help.

The apparel designer will create a virtual mood board containing colors (up to 8 colors), textures, some fabric swatches & email to client in jpg format. Designer will supply matching Pantone color #’s. Each color swatch is labeled and categorized with numbers and letters, allowing you to easily find the true color & communicate this with the clothing manufacturer or factory.
