Getting your tech packs created properly is a crucial step for your fashion brand. In our tech pack & design sessions, you'll work alongside an expert tech pack designer to create fully developed, high-quality tech packs for your clothing brand.

What is a Tech Pack & Design Session?

In every tech pack & design session you work alongside one of our designers, on a one-to-one basis online via Zoom or in person in our studio. We do all the drawing and technical work while advising and helping you through the entire session by sharing our expertise and honest advice.

After every tech pack & design session you will have the tech packs you need for sampling and bulk production. In these sessions we design exactly to your needs across a wide range of garments. These include dresses, t-shirts, trousers, cargos, joggers, swimwear, basic underwear, hoodies, tops, basic outerwear, etc.

We'll also create simple graphics if needed and give full access to our range of 80+ pre-developed garments to use as base shape to design around (if needed).
