I truly appreciate your insight. I initially wanted to do complete cut & sew but at the time, it was completely out of my budget. Then I went through the process of teaching myself tech packs and sourcing which just let me to printing in the meantime so I could have something functional.
Man just get your following up and do all that shyt later, lol
Outsourced Cut & Sew is a bytch to deal with.
and unless you have a third-party company doing Quality Control,
the inventory you get back is going to be a mixed bag.
but really it depends on the factory contracting the work.
i usually go to Fiverr for Tech Packs + Spec Sheets lol

I'm also glad that you mentioned the clothing being presented in a more practical way. I've got a couple shoots lined up in the next few weeks with all of the new pieces so we'll be able to showcase them in a more real world setting. I really have to start doing the shoots before the drops but this shyt is like holding onto someone's Christmas
IMO...
it's gotta feel "real" when you drop. Multiple cylinders have to be clicking at once.
I was posting sample pieces on IG getting 300-400+ likes but there wasn't any inventory to actually purchase.
local designers was taking my shyt and running with it....but it is what it is.
it's not about who comes up with an idea first,
it's about Who brings it to market first.
...Who puts Marketing $$$ behind it to make it pop, etc etc
i have a thread on here where i posted samples and didn't have anything for sale
whole thread is just people asking me where to buy and how to buy lol
now i don't post shyt unless:
1). I have Inventory/Quanity ready to go
2). I have already done photoshoot "looks" for the Lookbook
i think this is best way to roll-out.
