- Not all samples are created equal! There are a lot of different kinds of samples and they serve many different purposes within a fashion company! This video goes over how to take a random idea in your head and go through all the steps to get it made into an actual garment you can wear! And then I go through the sampling process on the way to production.

your videos feel like a top quality netflix series, honeslty 😍 i love your work.
Please tell Netflix to give me a show. :D
Agreed!
Yes I would the SHIT out of it because you helped me a lot my queen
My biggest dream is to have my own clothing label for babies and their mamas. I have the clearest visions of what I want to make, and this video is incredible! But when I see all this I doubt myself so much and start to think that I won't be capable of doing this :( Does anyone else feel the same? Or felt the same and did it anyway?
No because you didn't done your research properly. You just stick to your thought and didn't thought about market and your target audience.
@thecoconutpuff I do, but videos like these help me get my ideas out of my head. There are so many resources out there girl. For one, you have to believe in yourself! I think you have a great idea, so take that idea and make it real. #don'tloosehope #practiceuntilyougetit , xoxo.
TheCoconutPuff I feel the same way. It seems like a lot but if you believe in yourself and in your idea im sure you will be successful. You never know until you try and as hard as it is to start you can talk to somebody who can help you! Keep watching videos or seek help from other resources. Dont give up on your dream! Im sure once you get the hang of doing things you will be so happy you did it.
It doesn’t make me doubt myself I love this video and so happy I found it. Tbh just don’t push yourself let things be the way it supposed to. If u feel great about ur ideas go for it. I see people with different styles being successful all the time. It’s room for anyone of us.
@@indiee4971 I agree with you! But I also believe that you should push yourself, nothing is handed to anyone. "Work hard, and whatever is for you, will be yours." I wish you all the best girl, xoxo.
Thank you for your generosity in sharing this valuable information! I'm hooked!
You're welcome!
We live in such exciting times with the internet, to be able to see and hear someone with your level of knowledge its priceless! This is a fantastic break down for someone who is considering entering the Fashion Arena. Yes, many of the steps you mentioned may not apply to all but is good to have an idea of the industry as a whole. Thanks for loving Fashion and for sharing such great knowledge through your wonderful channel Ms. Zoe Hong!
One of my teachers asked me to follow you on youtube and I am soo hooked now. Don't ever stop making videos and sharing your knowledge bombs!!! And yes teacher, I am taking notes. :)
Zoe, I've dreamt of being a fashion designer from a child. I attempted my fashion career some years ago without really doing proper research, etc. That said I didn't do as well as I'd like. Watching your videos have been so incredibly informative that I've decided to try again - this time I can only be successful. Yay!!! Thank you for your consistent hard work!
Blessings
Good luck!
Do you have a project started? How's it going?
i'm 13 and going into a high school focused on internships, i'm going to do one some place where i can sew things. i just wanna learn a bit of stuff before i jump in.
Auntie Zoe dropping knowledge bombs!!
I actually just did my first sample in the actual fabric and made a list of things that need to be changed or amended, such an important step!
Good luck with your second sample!
you're really out here BLESSING us with this info 😫
The way you make it sound so clear cut and simple is making me fall more in love with fashion then I already am. Thank you.
I was listening to your advice. I was mostly enjoying watching you sketch. It's fun to watch you draw and color in your style. 😊
Thank you for being so thorough and precised!... not only this is this is fun to watch but so EDUCATIONAL! you're the best! Appreciate you sharing all your knowledge
Thank you Zoe! Love to see you sketching. So meditative!!!
this video was amazing! i feel like this is the sort of information that people spend weeks/months/years of schooling to get. Thank you so very very much for such concise yet in-depth info! thank youuu
Watching your videos is like having a therapy session 😍
This video is going to play on repeat for the entire summer
You're welcome!
Very interesting and informative! The fit is so important! Love the way you draw and render
Thank you so so much for all your information! My designs have aesthetically increased a lot because of you!
You're welcome!
Hey Zoe!! I'm really thakfull for all yor teaching, is very complete, and easy to understand..keep it up! greeting from Spain
Many thank you Zoe for this video, its definitely an essential guide. You shed light to my path... Heaven bless you more.
You're welcome!
I am going to watch this video 100 times so helpful and motivating!! Thank you
Thank you so much Zoe for making these amazing videos. I learned and gained so much knowledge from you and please never stop making videos. you are #fabulous
You're welcome!
This is incredible! Thank you Zoe!
Good GAWD I didn't realize a single garment could get so many samples!! Here I am complaining about making 2 toiles in college lol
Thanks for another amazing and informational video, Zoe!!
You're welcome! Remember, many of those samples are copies of the final sample!
Omg!!!! Thank you so much for this video!!! This is exactly what I needed❤❤
You're welcome!
Another amazing video! Thank you.
Thanks Zoe. Watched it while diligently taking notes(I almost transcribed it 🤣). Single time is not enough, I'll watch it one more time.
Thanks and cheers
Took a phone use break but came back to some gems! Auntie Zoe is the right name ❤❤❤ you take care of us like family!!
This is very thorough video, good job!
Thank you. Excellent video, as always.
Love your videos 💕
I’m learning a lot
Keep it up 👍🏽
Thanks.....For all the knowledge and exp you share with us..😍
Thank you so much! I love your humour as well 🥰🥰
Amazing video!!
Great video! Thank you so much. I would love more videos on making my own designs/garments. I am a plus size woman who never gets clothing to fit properly. If it fits somewhat well, the color is accentuating the obvious, (and not in a flattering way). I would love to make my own clothing, and clothing for others that flatters and is basically unrestricted.I think your videos could just open up my fashion experience for me. Thank you again.
you draws like a master 😍😍
Zoe: starts writing in marker with giant letters
Me: ish is going to get real in the video
Hahahahahahaha *serious teacher mode
YESSSSSS IM SO INTO THIS SERIES AS IM TRYING TO DO THIS EXACT SAME THING THANK YOUFOR THIS CONTENT!!! 😭❤️

Your an angel...thanks a million...i have a long way to go...this was overwhelming... but i am determined to get it done...
You're welcome and good luck!
How do you protect your idea while working with a vendor(s) to go through this process of developing your initial concept, samples, and eventually creating the final products to sell?
F
I loved this video, I learnt a lot in 18 minutes and i understood it all, i go to a fashion college and although i learn a lot this is exactly what I’ve wanted to be taught and here i found it on TH-cam, thank you so much for this
Are you still studying fashion.?
Gumdur yes
mal. 1989 can I see your portfolio or designs if it’s okey. Email me at gumdurgarry@gmail.com
I love the way you draw🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼
Zoe, you simply don't waste time. No bull....Just solid information and NO REPEATING yourself ,which makes me crazy. Have fun today.
I edit harshly. My videos are long enough. hahahaha~
@@zoehongteaches Yes, but they hold your attention. They can be slightly compelling . It's good.. I kick myself when I've spent 20mins watching your vid when I should be working.
You are a gem my daughter has natural talent went to fashion school and somewhere lost her drive and is depressed working in retail all this happen because I wasn’t in her life she moved with her dad and step mom to live and I was her muse I’m finally back in her life and want to push her back to her dream and you have given me the best info I could ask for. You are wonderful sharing your knowledge with the world. Thank you so much may God continue to bless you and keep you.
You're welcome and good luck to you and your daughter!
You are freaking awesome. Thank you!!
Thank you this helped out a lot!!!!!!😌
Once again Zoe reads my mind
Thank you for the content
You’re welcome!
This is Ella am 14 year s old I start fashion and design when am 11years , I really appreciate your help and to be honest I love the idea and it helps me a lot 💋😘💋 thank you a lot👌
Wow!! I'm speechless in the form you explained and the best part is, I understood every word you said. You have a way in speaking to people at least in my opinion. I'm just a person that loves to sew and loves to learn much more professionally than just having someone explain what a sewing machine needle is. I'm beginning to design my own clothes now (just for me) because some designs out there, well, do not fit my style unless I'm 20 and a size 0. I'll admit I am what the fashion industry calls large size I'm a 16 and either the fashion industry doesn't care how we look or just wants to poke fun trying to dress us as if the circus just arrived in town with large bright colors, I'm surprised the clown nose and shoes where not included with the outfit. I thank you very much for what you do helping us to understand about fashion, fabrics, etc. I am a subscriber now..YOU INSPIRE ME. Thanks again
You're welcome and thanks for your sweet note!
Hi Helen! I just wanted to say I thought your comment was really cool. I think your perspective is sorely needed in fashion and I think you could achieve a lot of success if you decide to sell your clothes to consumers.
@@belindawilliams4915 Thank you :)
@@helengomez2757 You are most welcome! ☺
#2 love your channel thanks again for another great video
You're welcome!
super helpful! thank you!
I love fashion design a lot and I found this video really helpful! ...I do have a lot of ideas and drawings but I don't really know how to sew.
and in the state I live in, there are no colleges that have fashion design.
Este video me abrio los ojos, mil gracias por tu apoyo y por compartir tu conocimiento. abrazos!
Mi sueño es tener mi propia linea de diseños :D
Wow i love your videos
I can’t concentrate on the info you’re saying cause I am taken away from the smoothness of your illustration!! I think I will watch this video twice then :) I love your videos. Plz keep ur promise and come back June. I am literally binge watching the 38 million videos u did 😄
Heyyyy Zoe!!! Thank you my love!!! ❤️❤️❤️
You're welcome!
I learned something new today!
Good!
love it!
This is the one I've been waiting for
Just watching Zoe draw bodies is so relaxing
So informative thanks!
You're welcome!
love love love love and peace upon you Zoe....
Zoe Senpaaai Thank yoooou for your generosity and kindness! You're helping designers all over shape their dreams one video at a time😂♥️♥️♥️I just need to ask you please, the made to order process, mostly in evening gowns, can you enlighten us with that too please. Many hugs and lots of love from Saudi Arabia♥️♥️♥️
It's not that different. Every designer has different skills so you build your career emphasizing your skills. You don't need to order the fabric in advance. You don't make samples, you make the gown. You should still create a tech pack to organize yourself and communicate with your client.
Zoe Hong Thank you! I'm still kinda trying to figure out lots of other crap, my aim is to start an evening gown boutique, and your videos are helping a bunch, but I guess there are some hills I will have to trot by myself and I'm so looking forward to it. Once again shokran🙏 (Thank you in my language😁💛)
Thank you so much
THANK YOU!!!
Zoe, great video as always.
How can we decide what size as the base size for a collection?
For example I have model, she is size 36EU measurements B/W/H 82-64-90cm. How can I know if I establish my size 36 EU(or US4) based on those measurements, it can fit average customer with size 36? what if the customer has bigger bust but smaller hips? what could be the best reference for deciding the sizing?
Thanks Zoe for this informative video... I’m so excited to get started! I have a question on size run. As you mentioned we will need to work on the middle size, if I’m planning to launch “M,L,XL & XXL” what would be the middle size? L or XL? Thank you😊
Wayyyy better than the guys on the internet
thank you for this
You're welcome!
LOVE THIS!!! 0:05 HELL YEAHH
wait too many samples :00000
looks like I have homework to do! And also, those sketches are amazing!! I hope to be that good!
Thanks!
Thanks for video Zoe could you do one on process of Made to order manufacturing how does that process work?
love you, boss
Hi dear, love your videos,
I don’t wanna have a fashion business Im tired of trying to find clothes that I like that fit me that aren’t expensive this video helped
Nice video
💖💖💖💖
Thanks!
I watch your videos religiously
Incredibly endearing when you started laughing
Hey Zoey, great video! ♥
What paint did you use?👀
Thanks
Thank u 💓
Doing inventory for stores like Bloomingdales and Bergdorf Goodman lets me see samples.
Thank you so much for this video! But do you by chance have any advice and/or videos for ppl that ARE looking to make just one off, private client stuff??
The most important thing is to have an agreement in advance that they have to pay for materials and materials cost is separate from your labor costs. When you quote someone, tell them "a bathing suit is $X + cost of materials."
Hey Zoe, great video with lots of information. I recently completed my Ph.D with specialisation in Apparel and Textile Science from India. Now I’m in Oxford, Ohio. So where I start my career here? I’m on J2 Visa type, so I need Visa sponsorship.
So silly but I love it! Lol 😂
Thank you for your video - I have a question, if someone hires me to draft a pattern and sew up a sample for them, what should they give to me to start the process ?
Hi Zoe, I'm very grateful for the videos and I've been watching for a while. I wanted to know if I physically create my pattern on paper but am working with a manufacturer in a different country, how do I effeciently share that pattern?
Make a copy and mail it over. Keep the original.
@@zoehongteaches thank you for replying!
Hey Zoe. Thank you very much for this very valuable info. I am very appreciate all your experience and knowledge your are sharing. Thank you .I am working for bridal dresses production company and ....I am going to share all your advises with my boss. Well ,do you think I may be faired? Anyway let me know if you are curios what my boss reaction will be!! Sincerely, Victoria.
Waiting for your new book. Good luck.
I like when you end a sentence with "gney"
Would you be open to making a video on how you can individually get a garment made? Best practices of sourcing a Master Tailor, materials and fittings…etc? I am petite 5’1” and am interested in getting a dress made (not wedding dress)
Great info . I already own a custom made fashion house (fashion boutique ) , I also give clothes on RENT I make garments out of cut pieces and now I want to open my own clothing line . Its a slow fashion clothing category . Its versatile and one size fits all category and made on order (as I don't want to waste fabric or buy bulk fabric ) . But I am confused about how to reach to right people? My target customer is everyone who wants to save planet and stay fashionable and loved mix and match .I will be using youtube and insta and all other channels but how do I really reach people and sell ?
So many samples
if i succeed off ur videos u deserve one of my kidneys!!
If this is my first time to do a collection,how many copies should I do for each design?I’m kinda confused with marketing part + can I just deal with 1 tailor to do the whole collection for me because it’s quite difficult to deal with acompany as a beginner..
I needs a video on how to protect my designs
