This is a doozy. It's long, it's full of layers of information on how to manage your production, all the steps you'll need to take from the second you start getting wholesale orders til you ship out. CMT (cut make trim) is really the least of it. You have to get organized and stay organized.

One of the most straight-forward fashion vids i've watched
Watching this makes me feel like i'm in a class in a fashion course , if i get big in the industry i'll just say "I've learned from the best , watching Zoe's vids got me here"
This is why I do custom pieces… made to order cause in school grading and production was a headache and let’s not even talk about finding factories that will take on new clients with small minimums
F this😂😂😂😂😂
So funny usually at 3am
@@allie.joy.designerI liked this and watching at 3:am
Really, really, really great info, Zoe! Thank you! I'm a burgeoning patternmaker (I'm taking design courses at a local uni!), and I think the verb you're looking for RE: seam allowances is trueing (or at least fixing up SA's for directional pressing is part of the trueing process, as far as I understand and have practiced it).
So, in this vid, you speak as a fashion designer. I would love to hear you talk about how a fashion designer builds a team/hires additional talent to bring garments to production, i.e., what to look for in/expect from a patternmaker, pattern grader, technical editor, tech pack maker, etc. Because it'd be super inefficient (and completely overwhelming) for one person, a fashion designer, to take on all that work. TIA for your consideration; always excited to see what you share with us. 💙
Hi Zoe thank you for this video, it seems like many people are either uncomfortable to talk about this topic in detail or simply gatekeep this information, you happen to be one of very few who actually wants to help others to understand it better so thank you, videos like this are important & in detail which gives us a perspective on how it all actually works from inside out, no bs just calm collected straightforward information, if you can, if it's possible, please do more of these, tecqnical, production orientated, bussiness orientated etc.videos, I've seen many videos that sort of scare you away & overwhelm you intentionally, you don't.❤
P.S. sorry for rambling, I love you & your work.😅❤
Don't be sorry. You were being very nice. :D
Idk which video you asked to let you know if we wanted one but the answer is yes. I want all the videos.
hahahahahahaa~ ok

A COUPLE QUESTIONS. I’m so excited about this video. Thank you so much for sharing the process! I am not a designer. I just sketch things that I think I would love to wear myself. I don’t sew either. You see the problem here LOL! But I’ve often been curious about production. Two questions…what are the main reasons we don’t manufacture here in the US and what would it take to change that in a “perfect world” scenario for American designers wanting to produce here? Is it a lack of trade education, like it is for many things in America? I wonder about things like, why would it cost more to make things here when you don’t have to pay for shipping and other international costs? Does it all boil down to how much you need to pay for the labor and why do we pay less for labor elsewhere? I truly don’t know. I just know that if I see something online that I think looks AMAZING and I order it, what I receive is some awful material that I would never wear and stitching that lasts only long enough to pull the clothing onto my body but not off of it. The designs and material look so fabulous, but the size, quality and feel are horrid in reality. And that’s why I sketch what I would love to wear and make. Help a girl out? I want to understand. 😊 THANK YOU!!!
Yes Zoe! I needed this! Love your videos so much… could you do a line sheet and tech pack video pls??!
I have all those videos already. Search "line sheet zoe hong" etc etc to find it.
Yes the zipper ordering is just wild. I ordered 975$ worth of custom zippers. A freaking job
Zoe, all the videos that you share with all of us are just pure gold--really informative, insightful, and very helpful! The amount of thought, planning, filming, editing that you put forth are very much appreciated. The sheer impact is just immeasurable. Thank you! 🙇🏻♂🙏💚
Zoe coming through with straight gems! Excellent video!
So I’m glad watched this. I needed this 😊
I love the way you explain these topics, so digestible!
So interesting! Love learning from you.
This piece is amazeballs. I have been in the business in different capacities my entire adult life. This rundown sums up much of my experience and enhances my understanding. I will definitely watch it more than once and have already sent it to a friend. Good job! Keep these valuable resources coming.
Yes, thank you! This is exactly the video I needed. ❤
Another amazing and super helpful video 💚💚
Love this sens of humour. Never get bored watching your videos.😂😂
I love you so much ! so informative
THANK YOU this video has really valuable insights
‘You gotta laugh because if we don’t laugh we cry’. If this isn’t the truest mantra for dealing with factories, I don’t know what is.
hahahahahahaha~
I love your videos.
I enjoy watching your videos so much. may i ask you to make a video about " pattern maker portfolio"!. i really need that
Read some job listings for pattern makers for what people are looking for. The only time I've ever hired pattern makers, I looked at clothes they made/ had made off their patterns, not a fancy book.
Great Video Zoe Hong! This step is very important thank you for dedicating a Video to it. One thing I will dare share is hold on to those samples that didn't sell because a season or two after those same clients who ignored it will then say "oh my gosh this is great!"
True!
How to recearch what people are looking for at the stores?
“If you do not laugh-you cry” 😁
Thank you for this informative video and, yes, a line sheet video would be fantastic.
Turns out I made one already haha link in description box
@@zoehongteaches 😂 oh, sorry! That’s great, though. Thank you.
Wow I loved this 😊 thank you so much 👏 I would be be very interested to see a tech-pack video
Go check out my Elements of a Tech Pack playlist.
This awesome information! I knew fashion was a lot but didn’t think there was so much that went into it. Question for you, Zoe. In your opinion, what is the solution to fast fashion? I feel like it has just gotten out of control and small boutique designers can’t get their foot in the door. Any advice would be amazing!
Can you make a video on “how do you make that” with those beautiful ,slinky, super segmented and gathered jersey dresses that have been in Tory Burch’s recent collections please
ok but looking at zipper varieties is cool when its not this hectic
Oh for sure! That's how I got so good at ordering zippers, I was so intrigued at all the options!
Hey Zoe, thanks for the fab videos!
Question - do you also provide the thread in general for production?
You don't have to usually, unless you want a very particular thread, like a specific topstitching thread.
Hi Zoe. Do we need to send physical samples of the entire collection to every brick and motor store/ boutique stores along with the line sheets for them to place orders? Or do they just place orders by looking at just the line sheets and catalogue photoshoot of the collection? Specially for a new brand trying to do wholesale for the first time. How does that work. Love your videos really informative. Also would love a video on how a showroom/ agency helps brands in fashion buisness. What all do showrooms do for brands. Thank you
That sounds like a good video idea. Thanks!
@@zoehongteaches this is from the perspective of someone living outside the US and having a brand in their home country and wanting to do wholesale to boutique stores in US. A lot of these concepts are new for us . Thanks
❤
Ok... How does one find a pattern maker?
What app are you using?
What Software are you using?
Is finding vendors to produce plus size items harder to find?
This is an amazing video. I have learned more watching this video than taking fashion classes
What is CMT factory?
cut make trim
4wha 4wha😂😂😂
Thank you for making this video! Def want a linesheet video. I have a question about the editorial pieces. Is there a certain number of editorial pieces a brand should offer each collection to capture attention from press and stylist? Should the editorial pieces be added to the line sheet to offer to buyers for production? If not, is it ok to have those editorial pieces for show to capture attention of press and stylist but not offer them?
After editing, I found my line sheets video. It's in the description box. You don't add anything to a line sheet you're not planning to sell. What you choose to sell is up to you but you may find some interest if they're cool enough.
