Vest:- I used the prototype when compiling the measurements, along with the sample size 10 measurements.
30
-Began with model’s measurements to develop sample size 10
•Found mean of measurements Nordstrom's size 1
•Neiman Marcus size 10
• Models measurements

--Grain was important with the given tweed, velvet fabric--Attended Pant Fit Session: The garment was all over way to big, however with a few changes, (starting from the top) it started to take shape.
32
•Consider price point for each sequence:
• --Nordstrom’s and Neiman Marcus.
• Also consider what people are buying,• ex: Full lining may not
be necessary.•Career wear = quality pieces meant to last and not to be disposable•Advantages: Fewer machines are needed. (Mostly just the 301 Lock stitch) •SPI depends on the thickness of the fabric1.Apply interfacing2.Develop Skirt3.Develop Lining4.Merge the two together
Problems: Placket and dealing with the opening at the bottom of the skirt
33
•I really didn’t know where to start with the packaging page. •I found some packaging directions/folding directions at work (University Bookstore)•added a few details to keep a constant price point.
34
•-Poly Bags•-Hangers
• Different for pants/skirt & Dress/Vest
•Carton• Corrugated cardboard box
based upon estimate of size of garments after folded
•Miscellaneous• Packaging tape• Straight Pins
•Fed Ex• Global logistics program
35
Each garment was to be sold as a separate piece.-Therefore, each one had its own complete spec packet.
Compiled:•Fabrics•Trims•Packaging & Shipping•--Based on the order of consumption determined by the construction page
