Day 39 NYC: work work work

Today we had work and man was it busy! The juniors department is still trying to get together their line for the spring 2013. Therefore I was mostly sketching and specking garments all day! It was so fun I also got one of the designers lunch and I checked in some fabrics in my spare time which there was not much of. Tomorrow we have the day off, so yea! Happy Fourth of July to everyone who is reading this still!

Day 38 NYC: Just another Manic Monday

Today was really interesting because the juniors design team had a meeting with Sue and they decided what to put into the line for the spring 2013 season the meeting lasted from 10AM till about 4:30 PM so I did not really get a lunch but it was very educational. This meeting is where they try on the Store samples they bought in Europe and decide what to do with them to make them fit their price point. One sample they had to make in a different knit. One, they could not put all of the sequins in that the original sample had in it. And a couple of them they had to do a more cost effective hem. It was really interesting to see because up to this point I have seen the end of what they do for the season this is the first time I got to see what they base their designs off of. After that I started to sketch what the design team had decided on and then when I and Stephanie got home we cleaned up her house a bit.
