How a Garment Is Produced: A Step-by-Step Guide

By PXN Design Team,Posted on May 25, 2025

  1. Design Conception

The production of a garment starts with design. Designers get inspired by trends, culture, or art, sketching initial ideas. Then, they use CAD software or traditional methods to create detailed technical drawings with measurements and design elements.

  1. Fabric Selection

Based on the garment’s purpose and season, suitable fabrics are chosen. Factors like quality, durability, and cost are considered. Designers source fabrics from suppliers, often after examining samples at trade shows.

  1. Pattern Making

Pattern makers transform designs into two – dimensional templates. They create pattern pieces for each garment part, adjusting for fit and fabric grain. Grading follows to make patterns for different sizes, and markers are made to optimize fabric layout.

  1. Cutting

Fabric is laid out in layers on a cutting table. Using the markers as a guide, pattern pieces are cut with tools like straight knives or automated machines. Cut pieces are sorted and labeled for sewing.

  1. Sewing

Skilled sewers assemble the cut fabric pieces with various sewing machines. They follow specific instructions for stitching, seam allowances, and details like attaching zippers. Quality checks happen during this process.

  1. Finishing

After sewing, the garment is trimmed, pressed, and has labels added. Some may undergo extra treatments like washing or dyeing. These steps enhance its appearance and quality.

  1. Quality Control

Garments are inspected thoroughly for stitching accuracy, seam integrity, and overall fit. Defective items are fixed or discarded; only qualified products move forward.

  1. Packaging and Distribution

Approved garments are folded, bagged, labeled, and packed for shipping. They’re sent to warehouses, distribution centers, or stores, ready for consumers to buy.
