Initial Fashion Design Consultation

Starting a collection can feel overwhelming. Our Initial Fashion Design Consultation is designed to bring clarity, structure, and technical direction to your ideas before development begins.

During your personalised session, the Grade House team carefully reviews your concepts, sketches, references, and goals. We assess feasibility, construction approach, and production considerations to ensure your design direction is both creative and technically achievable.

What We Cover

We guide you in selecting appropriate fabrics, linings, interfacing, trimmings, and embellishments. The focus is not only aesthetic but also durability, cost efficiency, and production suitability.
