Samenvatting:

Fashion is a multi-billion-dollar industry. It is not just about sketching an outfit, it is about selecting fabric, developing buttons, sourcing a factory, negotiating prices, making patterns, seeing to the final launch, and selling garments. With many fashion schools now recognising the importance of including technical modules to their degrees, this guide is the perfect accompaniment to the relevant modules with its vocational a to z approach of what happens in the workplace, including how to build and maintain key business relationships. People who buy Blue is the New Black want to know how to create a collection. They want to roll up their sleeves and do it, but they need practical instruction on the different stages. Written for fashion graduates, those in entry level positions within the industry and fledgling entrepreneurs, this book demystifies the process of how to make a fashion collection, making it accessible for all levels. • First fashion handbook on production and development • Fills a gap in the market of practical advice for (aspiring) fashion professionals • 20 years of insight and experience; a must-have for young first jobbers and students
