If the Pieces Fit
But finding fits that flatter a wide variety of “vases” isn’t impossible. Getting the scoop on the various components of a women’s apparel item is the first place to start. Here are a few areas where distributors can get ahead of the curves:
1) Fabric. “I usually like to go for the softer fabrics when I’m doing the women’s-only styles,” noted Gina Gaudet, director of design at Medford, Massachusetts-based Charles River Apparel. This design inclination, she added, will manifest itself in a soon-to-be introduced polyester fabrication that feels like chenille. Also, Gaudet said, “Fleeces work well, a lot of the fabrics are more forgiving,” which is a positive when trying to meet a host of sizing needs.
