About this book

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. It is a multi-faceted industry that is exciting, enigmatic and endless.

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. They don’t want to read about data management systems or new thread developments; they want to understand what a range plan is and how to review a prototype with a factory.

Written for fashion graduates, fledgling entrepreneurs or those in entry level positions within the industry, this book demystifies the process of how to make a fashion collection, making it accessible for all levels. It is a reference guide, a buddy, and an overview of who, what and where.
