Industrial pattern making requires a high level of flexibility in order to adapt the designers’ indications to industrial rules.
This profession was born after the industrialisation of the clothing and apparel industry, as the process required a standardisation of sizes. Industrial pattern makers translate sketches and prototype sheets into a multi-size pattern.
You can choose one of the following areas: Womenswear, Menswear, Casual, Children, Beachwear and Sportswear, Corsetry and Lingerie.
