Here’s what we plan to do to the Grecian Studded Dress:
1) Inner tube lookalike in between the boobs to be same colour as the dress
2) Elastic band as the back
3) Inner lining to be the same colour as the dress
4) Thicker lining
However, for points 3 & 4, our supplier may not be able to do it due to material availability or price constraints.
I used to think that suppliers would be able to replicate whatever we see on photos into the real thing. But apparently, this is not the case. We have met our share of suppliers, quite a number in fact, telling us that they can’t do this, they can’t do that. Of cos we have also met a supplier who told us, she CAN do this, she CAN do that. But apparently, all she delivered was trash.
I even did up the preview photos to be posted.
but seems like the photos have to take a backseat now while we hunt for other suppliers to re-do the samples for us.
2010 is coming in another 3.5 days. Well i think 2009 is quite a sucky year for me.
i) Met the wrong guy
ii) Failed a module (by 2 freaking marks!!!) though it was my second attempt
iii) Some uncertainty about my job (may be outsourced)
iv) Slow business
Pray hard that 2010 will be a better year for me cos of the fact that it’s my final year in the monstrous SIM/UOL course. Let’s hope that there will rainbows shining down my path, cutesy birds chirping and adorable bunnies hopping along the way.
And we hope that our designs will be well received, and that our suppliers will not give us shit.
