Let’s Run a (productive) Fitting

Make the most of your fittings by focusing on the fit of the garment first. Don’t let yourself be distracted by sewing details which can easily be fixed, while fit corrections can take multiple proto rounds to approve.

Fitting Objectives Checklist:

•Take photos of the garment for tracking and documentation purposes:
Front, side and back photos of the garment.

•Take up close photos of any wash/fabric errors or fit issues, and photograph the garment before and after it has been pinned or cut (front, side and back).

•The fit of the garment should be examined and corrected, as needed.

•The model should feel comfortable and be able to move effortlessly.

•The garment should meet the designer’s expectations for look, feel and attitude (design intent).

Notes should be taken during the fitting to ensure that all fit corrections can later be recalled during the fit comment process.

✂️ Happy Fittings!
