Trend & Print Direction
$200.00

A season’s color and print direction, built around your brief.

Description: Before a single motif gets painted, the season needs a point of view. Send me your brief (customer, category, delivery window), and I’ll translate what’s moving on the runways into a focused direction for your line: the colorways, print stories, and scale and mood that read as right now to your customer. It isn’t a generic trend report. It’s edited for your brand by a designer with 20 years in womenswear on both the buying and making sides.

  • Seasonal color palette with [2–3] colorway directions

  • [3–4] print stories with reference imagery and notes on scale and layout

  • A [30-minute] walkthrough call to present the direction

Timing and price: 3 weeks after call · $200

Custom Print Development
$1,350.00

Original hand-painted artwork, developed into production-ready repeats for your collection.

Description: Every print starts as physical artwork, painted or drawn by hand, then built into a seamless repeat that’s exclusively yours. You get more than a single design: a hero print with the coordinates that make it a collection, shown on your silhouettes and handed over with the information your factory needs. The hand changes with the brief, so the print looks like your brand, not mine.

Included:

  • Original hand artwork developed from your brief

  • Hero print in seamless repeat, with 2-3 colorways

  • Coordinates (blender, stripe or secondary) on request

  • Layered, production-ready files with tech pack information: repeat size, color references, scale

  • [2] rounds of revisions

  • Full buyout: the artwork is yours alone

Timing and price: 2 months · From $1350 per print / $2500 per group of three
