Ethical Design Consultant
Here to guide you on your ethical fashion journey
Freelance fashion designer and consultant for fashion start-ups looking to produce their first collections, and established brands looking to outsource design, or looking for guidance on making more ethical and sustainable choices within their current supply chains.
Technical Consultation
-
Before beginning any new project, it is best that we have a chat and discuss your business objectives and how St.Clair Design Collective can help you achieve them. Not sure what you need to get started? Not a problem! Never heard of a tech pack before? You’re not alone! I can answer all of these questions during our consultation, and help you draw a clear map of how to get your business from concept, to reality.
Already an established business, looking to outsource technical design? Perfect! I can help you with all your tech pack needs and help you to continue growing your business into the future.
Technical Design Pack
-
Tech packs are the first step in your journey to having your garments manufactured. They provide manufacturers with all the information they need to produce your garment exactly as you envisage it.
If you're looking to have garments produced by a manufacturer or outworker, you will need a tech pack (sometimes called technical design pack or specification pack). This comprehensive document communicates all the information required to pattern-make, source fabric, and construct your garment exactly as you envisage it.
Without a tech pack, design details can easily be lost in translation and you may find you need to have multiple samples produced before your garment is ready for production, costing you time and money.
Design Consultation
-
Design consultations are perfect for those who are at the concept stage of their fashion business, or established businesses wanting to rebrand, or get to know their target market closer.
During your design consultation we will talk about your vision for your brand, and look at what information you have so far, so that we can determine which design services best suit you and your businesses needs, and we can get started on trend research, mood boards, and design developments so that you can see your vision come to life.
Testimonials
“Before launching my business, I had no idea what was involved from a technical design standpoint, so having someone to bounce ideas off, and gain access to industry experience without the pressure and expense of hiring a full time designer has been extremely helpful.
Sarah is knowledgeable, helpful, prompt and her standard of work is incredible. Sarah has done in excess of 10 tech packs for us so far and I couldn’t recommend her enough. Sarah has never failed to deliver. Working with her has benefitted my business in more ways than one.”
Megan Eley - Summer Reign the Label
“Sarah is my go to person for Technical Fashion requirements. In my business I work with designers who don't have the expertise to undertake the complex and detailed technical aspects of fashion like Sarah does. I highly recommend her to anyone who is in need of these services.”
