Fashion design can involve concept work, technical development and production support. Clarify which parts you need rather than assuming one fee covers the whole process.
What to check
Describe the audience, intended use, budget and quantity. Ask what sketches, specifications or samples will be delivered. Agree revision rounds, ownership and how production changes will be handled. If another maker will produce the garments, confirm that the design documentation is sufficient for a clear handover.
Questions to ask
- Are technical specifications included?
- Who develops the sample?
- What rights and files will you receive?
Confirm the appointment in one message
Bring together the service, location, time, expected duration and quoted inclusions before the appointment. Ask the provider to flag anything that still requires consultation or measurement. A photograph can communicate an idea, but it should not replace a discussion about what is suitable and achievable. Leave enough time for preparation and any agreed follow-up. Keep the booking and change terms available so both sides can refer to the same arrangement.
