Pattern Maker (Fashion)

1. Pattern Development:Create precise patterns from design sketches and technical specifications;Develop initial patterns using both manual drafting methods and CAD software (e.g., Gerber, Lectra);Ensure patterns reflect the desired style, fit, and construction techniques while considering technical feasibility.2. Fit Adjustments:Collaborate with the Garment Technician during fit sessions to evaluate garment prototypes and identify fit issues;Adjust patterns based on feedback from fit sessions to meet brand fit standards;Communicate pattern revisions to the Garment Technician and relevant teams for alignment.3. Size Grading:Develop size grading rules to scale patterns for a full size range while maintaining proportions and fit integrity;Ensure consistency across all sizes and garment styles in collaboration with the Garment Technician.4. Team Collaboration:Partner with the Garment Technician to align patterns with tech pack specifications;Collaborate with designers to understand their vision and provide technical input on design feasibility;Work closely with sample makers and provide guidance to ensure patterns are accurately interpreted during garment assembly.5. Quality Assurance:Verify patterns meet quality and construction standards before production;Collaborate with the Garment Technician to identify and address potential production issues early in the development process.6. Pattern Archiving:Maintain a library of patterns, ensuring proper organization and version control;Update patterns based on design, fit, or production feedback in partnership with the Garment Technician.7. Production Support:Provide finalized patterns to the production team for bulk manufacturing;Address and resolve pattern-related issues that arise during production, coordinating with the Garment Technician as needed.
