One of my favorite stages of creating a fashion collection is the stage when all of my work is done and I start editing the garments down to create complete looks to include in a collection line up.
I mention when work is 'done' but it never really is. During the editing stage, I keep redesigning smaller details, adding or removing elements, and changing the color scheme.

This 12-look collection is an example of the final stages of my work - this is when I have narrowed down the looks and am working with the best fabric setup.
During the editing process, I ensure that I have a balanced set of garments that the customer can mix-and-match and that the fabrics are used evenly to create a pleasant color story.
This is a Spring/Summer collection so I include dresses, skirts, and tops. There are also several pants and jackets to ensure the customer can layer garments if need be.
Having an understanding of the collection and the customer is crucial to balancing the design elements and achieving a lovely collection.
