Anatomy of a technical flat. These are used in the fashion industry by designers and product developers to accurately convey the construction of a garment. A technical flat like this one would be included as part of a “tech pack” which is sent to the contractor, often along with a sewn sample. Finished measurements, sewing instructions and a bill of materials (BOM) are also included.
Getting all the ideas out (good, bad, and ugly). Fashion design is a process and expecting perfection at the start keeps me stuck and frustrated. I imagine my designs lined up in my head. I don’t know where in the lineup my best ideas are… so I have to let them all out without judgement. It’s a brilliant habit to get into.

This hit me hard today in a good, good way. I love the message. It made me realize how easily I can take things personally-remembering this can help me avoid doing that.
