Something I’ve found helpful is to stick to the technical aspects of the design and what can be done on the knitting machine to create a garment that is both commercially and aesthetically pleasing.

Be open. Hear their concerns, but don't be afraid to tactfully point out any blind spots. Point to previous successes using similar research & development processes, highlight internal or external wear tests, explain the scale at which you are seeing this trend in the market and be ready to cite your sources. Know your client and their needs. Walk their floor ahead of major meetings, or quickly pull up their e-commerce cite and familiarize yourself with their product lines and campaigns. Speak their language and show command of their unique market position. Be authoritative in your area of expertise, but be agile enough to guide them to a compromise that achieves your vision and their assortment needs.

When a client's fashion design solution is questioned, your image and wardrobe expertise can be pivotal in demonstrating its practicality. Start by clearly linking the design to the client’s needs and goals, showing how it enhances their image and aligns with their personal or professional brand. Use visual aids, such as mood boards or style mock-ups, to illustrate the design’s versatility and functionality. Highlight how the wardrobe integrates seamlessly with their existing pieces and can adapt to various settings. By presenting a well-thought-out rationale and showcasing the practical benefits, you can build confidence in your design and reinforce its value.

When a client starts questioning professional services, it's often a symptom of insecurities or mistrust that must be resolved to move forward. If the solution meets or exceeds the performance and price requirements of the client, then it's always possible that the client is having buyer's regret or got a lower bid for the job.

When a client questions the practicality of your fashion design, it's crucial to engage them with evidence and reasoning. Start by thoroughly explaining the functionality and benefits of the design, using clear examples or demonstrations if possible. Offer a comparison with alternative designs to highlight your choice's advantages. Be patient and open to feedback, as this can foster understanding and build trust. Ensure you communicate that your primary goal is to meet their needs with an effective, well-thought-out design solution.

Support your design with real world applications as basis on how you came up with the details and specifications. Don't be afraid to be specific.

One thing I’ve found helpful is technicalities. When a garment is constructed, it goes through an entire series of how the stitches will run through it making it both functional and timeless. The best way to put this across with a client would be to encourage the idea of keeping them in the loop, so they believe that the considered option is the right way!

When a client questions a fashion design solution, it's essential to communicate its practicality effectively. 1. Present a clear visual representation of the design, showcasing how it aligns with their brand identity and target market. Utilizing sketches, mood boards, or even digital mockups can help illustrate the concept. 2. Highlight the functionality of the design, addressing any specific concerns they have. 3. Share examples of similar successful designs can build credibility. By combining visuals with solid reasoning, I can instill confidence in my solution and reassure the client of its practicality.

If you know what your design represents, then it’s just understanding the different opinions and seeing if they fit with your concepts, not everyone will understand your vision. Take what they say and evaluate the applicable values it can offer. You can explain your ideas behind the designs, one can always agree to disagree. Stay true to your design principles, learn where you can and improve, but never compromise your ideas.
