Monday-Week 11

The start of week eleven. I can't believe it has been that long already. This morning it started out compiling all of of the sample tables that we currently have into a folder to take with to the design studio. Britt (design assistant/ manufacturing & production) and I took the sample tables to the design studio for Camilla to go through. Since, Camilla is always busy she only had a select time frame that she could work with us. We showed her what sample images we had received from current manufacturers. From there Camilla told Britt and I what she did like and what she wanted changed or slightly adjusted. So Britt and I were frantically writing down all the production notes on what Camilla wanted changed. We met with Camilla from morning to midday. Once we were done working with her we went back to the office to type up the production notes and send them to the appropriate manufacturer. Doing this took a lot of time, because you have to attach the image of the garment that you want changed and then highlight or circle what needs to be changed on that garment. On top of that you have to give specific directions to the manufacturer so they understand exactly what needs to be changed. The more precise we are with the directions/production notes the more likely the manufacturer will change it the right way. The less time going back and forth with a manufacturer the better.
