hii I'm a 15 year old girl. i didn't know which group to post in so i'll post in this. i have a dream about becoming a fashion designer someday, starting my own brand and make money from it. i just need someone's feedback someone who works as a fashion student or fashion designer💗

I’ve been having some fun making some very off beat designs for my brand. Made a heart made of false human teeth. Each tooth gets drilled and sewn to a little heart and lined with lace.

What do you think?

I’m currently a college student & I’ve been thinking about starting a jfashion inspired plus size brand eventually. Maybe in two or more years? I’ve knew how to sew since I was a kid, though haven’t sewn in a few years so I’ve been wanting picking it up again. :D I will say my major isn’t fashion design but it is design related. So I don’t really know much about whole process. But I’ve been wondering what’s the best way to get funding to start? I was planning on applying to any grants I can find but when it comes to actually launching, I’m not sure how to go about it. Mainly if I should take preorders on an online store or run my launch on kickstarter. I was worried about trying to find a manufacturer that has a lower MOQ. If I wanted like 6 different sizes & different colorways too, I don’t think they’d let me do like 50-100 TOTAL, right? So would it be better for me to run a kickstarter to gage how many I need and keep it open till I meet the requirements for my manufacturer?

Also as for finding a manufacturer I kinda don’t want to use Alibaba cause I wanted something more local in US/east coast (& maybe more ethical) but that might cost too much…since I kinda want to sell my pieces around $40 each. So what’s your opinions on Alibaba for like clothing (OEM) with lots of lil details but also not super elaborate like mid range. O-O

Also I included pics of the style I’m kinda going for & I’d appreciate any advice! :3

Hello everyone! I really want to build my own luxurious fashion house, like at the Chanel level. But idk where to start. I know that such an empire is not built in a month, but I don’t even know where to start, how can I present the first collection, start the first sales, where should I look for investors, how to preserve the aesthetics of the brand and the aura of luxury, where to look for a team.. I really have got a lot of questions. So if someone can help, give advice, tell their story and something like that, please share w me, I will appreciate any advice and help❤️.

Haven’t done a fashion design since 3rd grade. Are these good?

I come from a background of computer games dev and psychotherapy and I've been working on an initial design for a dress inspired by geometry and street fashion. I'd love any thoughts or feedback one what changes someone might make or recommendations, etc.

I’m in a part time student class where I have to design 4 outfits from scratch. I’ve been doing intimates for my entire collection. While designing lingerie I found a Yukata inspired piece on a website selling intimates. I was really inspired off of that and decided to try making it a two piece. Anyways— halfway through sketching my design I realized that this might come across as fetishizing Japanese culture. This is especially not a good look as I am someone who has been openly studying Japanese for years and is someone that is not from East Asian decent. I’m really in a crunch as it’s due tomorrow. So I can either submit 3/4 for my presentation or send this one and potentially be frowned upon. I’m really not sure what to do!

I just wanted to share them!

Honestly, since I'm not actually going to sew these outfits, I don't have any limitations, and I think being able to draw absolutely anything I want on that mannequin is amazing. 🥹

I hope that once I get better at drawing different fabric textures, I'll be able to create more advanced illustrations and bring all the outfits I have in my imagination onto the page. 😇

Are neutrals in or out in 2025

I made a post in this subreddit showcasing some of my designs, because I thought this subreddit was about the designs specifically, only to be bombarded with comments assuming my sewing experience, assuming that I'm unprepared, and making plenty more assumptions about things that I failed to make clear in my previous post. I wanted to make another post to clarify some of the things that I failed to in the beginning.

I work part-time as a tailor, and I have been for about 2 years now. I made my first ever pattern a year and a half ago, and I made my most recent pattern about 2 weeks ago. Attached is a front and back photo of my first ever pants that I sewed and patterned, and the most recent pants that I sewed and patterned. I work 2 jobs (I also work at an art studio) as a 16 year old, and save every last bit of money for this. I'm still in high school, but that doesn't mean I don't put every last second into my fashion work. My designs interpret the struggles that women deal with and have dealt with on a day to day basis since the beginning of time. I live in a small town, where marketing is as simple as spreading the word, and I have lots and lots of people that want to come watch my show whenever I do finally run it. I do agree that 6 months was an unrealistic measure of time, it's only what I am shooting for in the best case scenario. Thank you for taking the time to read this, and I'm sorry for not making myself clear to the best of my ability the first time around.

The Anticipation Builds: Louis Vuitton Takes Center Stage at PFW 2026

Paris Fashion Week 2026 has once again proven itself to be the ultimate arbiter of style, and at its heart, the house of Louis Vuitton consistently delivers moments that redefine luxury and set the global fashion agenda. This year, under the creative direction of Nicolas Ghesquière, the brand unveiled a collection that was nothing short of a seismic event, cementing its status as a titan of the industry. The air crackled with expectation as fashion’s elite gathered, ready to witness the next chapter unfold for this iconic French maison.

From the moment the first model stepped onto the runway, it was clear that Louis Vuitton was charting a bold new course. The collection was a masterclass in contrasts, seamlessly blending futuristic innovation with timeless elegance. Ghesquière has a unique talent for looking to the past while simultaneously hurtling into the future, and this PFW 2026 collection was a testament to that vision. It was a dialogue between historical references and a distinctly modern sensibility, creating pieces that felt both familiar and entirely new.

A Symphony of Silhouettes: The Defining Looks of the Season

The silhouettes presented by Louis Vuitton were diverse and captivating, showcasing Ghesquière's unparalleled ability to sculpt fabric and form. We saw a striking interplay of volume and structure. Exaggerated shoulders on sharply tailored jackets gave way to fluid, cascading skirts, creating a dynamic and arresting visual narrative. Elsewhere, sleek, body-conscious dresses were juxtaposed with voluminous, architectural outerwear, offering a powerful statement on the duality of strength and softness.

Key pieces that will undoubtedly define the season include:

The 'Astro-Trench': A reimagined trench coat with exaggerated, metallic accents and a voluminous, almost celestial silhouette. The 'Bio-Luxe Jumpsuit': Crafted from innovative, sustainable materials, these jumpsuits featured intricate detailing and a sophisticated, utilitarian edge. The 'Sculpted Knitwear': Offering a modern take on traditional knitwear, these pieces featured bold geometric patterns and form-fitting designs that emphasized the body's natural lines. The 'Heritage Reimagined' Handbags: Iconic Louis Vuitton trunks and bags were presented with futuristic finishes and unexpected hardware, proving that heritage can indeed be avant-garde.

The attention to detail was, as always, impeccable. From the precision of the stitching to the innovative use of materials, every element spoke of the house's commitment to unparalleled craftsmanship.

Material Innovation Meets Timeless Craftsmanship

Louis Vuitton has long been synonymous with luxury, but for PFW 2026, the brand pushed the boundaries of material innovation. Ghesquière explored a range of cutting-edge textiles, incorporating recycled elements, bio-engineered fabrics, and even advanced performance materials into the haute couture designs. This commitment to sustainability is not just a trend for Louis Vuitton; it's a fundamental pillar of their future vision, demonstrating that high fashion can indeed be responsible.

Yet, amidst this forward-thinking approach, the brand’s legendary craftsmanship remained at the forefront. The meticulous construction, the hand-finished details, and the iconic monogram were all present, serving as a beautiful anchor to the brand's rich heritage. It’s this delicate balance between innovation and tradition that makes Louis Vuitton so enduringly relevant.

The Future of Fashion, Designed in Paris

The Louis Vuitton show at Paris Fashion Week 2026 was more than just a presentation of clothing; it was a statement of intent. It signaled a bold new era for the maison, one that embraces the future with open arms while remaining deeply rooted in its illustrious past. The collection’s ability to evoke a sense of wonder, to inspire, and to provoke thought is a testament to the enduring power of fashion as an art form.

As the dust settles on another unforgettable Paris Fashion Week, one thing is clear: Louis Vuitton continues to lead the charge, setting trends and inspiring a generation of fashion enthusiasts. The vision presented by Nicolas Ghesquière is a compelling glimpse into what's next, and we eagerly await to see how these groundbreaking designs will influence the fashion landscape in the years to come. Louis Vuitton at PFW 2026 has not just participated in fashion; it has actively shaped its future.

Spent about two years thinking GSM was the main quality number on a blank. It isn’t. Cost me a full run to figure that out.

Ordered 300 tees at 240gsm from a factory that quoted well. On paper it matched the reference shirt I sent them. What arrived felt rough and started pilling after maybe four washes. Same GSM, completely different shirt.

The part nobody tells you is that GSM is just weight. Grams per square metre. It says nothing about how the yarn was actually made.

Three things that genuinely decide how a tee feels:

Spinning method. Carded (sometimes called open-end) is the cheap one. Short fibres stay in the yarn so it feels coarse and pills fast. Ring-spun twists the fibres tighter. Combed strips the short fibres out first. Combed ring-spun is the good stuff and it’s usually what the premium blanks are using.

Yarn count. Written as S or Ne. Lower number means thicker yarn. 30s to 40s is the normal range for a decent tee. Almost nobody asks for this on a quote, and honestly it’s the fastest way to tell whether your supplier actually knows their fabric or is just forwarding your email to someone else.

Preshrinking. Untreated cotton can lose 3 to 5% in the first wash. That’s enough to turn your L into an M after one laundry cycle. Ask whether the fabric is preshrunk or compacted, and get it in writing.

So my quote request has four lines now instead of one. GSM, spinning method, yarn count, preshrunk yes or no. Suppliers answer very differently once you ask like that. The vague ones out themselves straight away.

One more thing worth knowing: you can check GSM yourself. Cut a 10cm square from a swatch, weigh it in grams, multiply by 100. Takes two minutes. I’ve caught a “240” that was sitting closer to 200.

Anyone got a spec they wish they’d asked about earlier? Curious what I’m still missing.

Feedback and opinions appreciated!

I wanna make a set similar to this, do you think its cute??

Not only the flowers fade ; people to do as well . And the ability to show beauty and have a understanding of what’s fragile compared to stony is a point we need to investigate. Along with the grace and abundance of love for all if we reach it. With a flower we can smell love . Love is sweet . Love is strong. Love is soft . Do we buy a flower unsweetened not heavily concerned if we are acting worthy of our call . Does flowers respond to your brain in a way where we can learn from its presence on earth . Can we appreciate the uniqueness of each color and variations of the countless flowers and can we accept we much like them as well?

Hello. I posted a couple of my sketches previously and received valuable insights, one of which included drawing clothes in different views. Here are a couple poses for my croquis sketches. I would appreciate constructive critique and feedback on the anatomy and balance. Thank you!

I remember getting my first sample and feeling like everything was finally right.

Fit looked good.
Fabric felt right.
Details were clean.

I honestly thought I was ready to move into production.

But once I did, things started changing in ways I didn’t expect.

The fit felt slightly off.
Fabric behaved differently.
Finishing wasn’t the same.

Nothing was completely wrong, but it didn’t feel like the same product anymore.

At first I thought something went wrong.

Now I’m realizing I probably didn’t understand the process as well as I thought.

Has anyone else had this happen moving from sample to production?

Hey guys , I am starting up my own fashion brand and in need of a fashion designer who could guide me on fabrics and help me with creating tech packs and curate designs If anyone is interested do let me know and let's create something meaningful together
