About the project
I’m the founder of a Singapore-based menswear label launching its first collection (SS27). The designs are architectural and androgynous: structured tops, layered panels and wide-leg trousers, with no prints. Technical flats, construction notes and reference images are ready for all six styles.
I’m looking for one experienced freelance technical designer and pattern maker, based in Guangzhou, Shenzhen or Hong Kong, to lead development from pattern to production-ready samples and to liaise with my factory.
Deliverables
1. Paper and digital patterns for all 6 styles (DXF or equivalent)
2. Grading into 3 sizes
Factory-ready tech packs in English and Mandarin: measurement specs, construction details, materials and trims list
3. First samples (proto) and one round of corrections; a second round for the more complex styles
4. Fittings over video call, with written fit comments and pattern updates after each fitting
5. Help sourcing and checking fabric and trims at the Guangzhou markets
6. Liaison with my factory during production, including checking the first pieces off the line
Timeline
Paid trial (one Top pattern and first sample): start early December 2026
All 6 patterns and first samples: by 22 January 2027, before the Chinese New Year break
Pre-production samples approved: by 31 March 2027
Production support: April 2027 (60 pieces total)
Requirements
1. Proven experience in structured and tailored garments: please share portfolio examples of collars, linings and complex panels
2. Experience with bias-cut and draped pieces
Fluent Mandarin (Cantonese a plus) and good written English
3. Based in or near Guangzhou, Shenzhen or Hong Kong, with access to a sample room
4. Experience working directly with small-batch factories
Terms
Budget: approximately USD 2,500–3,000 for patterns, tech packs and grading for all 6 styles. Sample costs are quoted separately. Open to your proposal.
Paid in milestones: trial style → patterns → first samples → pre-production samples
All patterns, files and designs belong to the brand. A confidentiality agreement is signed before files are shared.
Paid trial first. If it goes well, we continue with the full collection.
To apply, please include:
3–5 examples of structured or tailored pieces you’ve patterned
Your price for the Stone Top trial (pattern + first sample)
Whether you have your own sample room or work with one
Your availability from December 2026 to April 2027
