INDUSTRY EVENT – THE FUTURE OF READY-TO-WEAR MAKING

Garment Manufacturer WORKINGMENBLUES will be hosting the industry talk Ready-To-Wear Making 3.0 in Amsterdam on Wednesday 19th June.

WMB has gathered an ensemble of industry experts (PVH, Première Vision, CLO Virtual Fashion) to discuss today’s struggles in developing and manufacturing garments. But moreover, the invitees will share very tangible solutions to prepare your ready-to-wear brand for tomorrow’s demand.

The industry talk will be a collection of brief presentations “interrupted” by panel discussions in interaction with the audience.

Freshly opened concept store ABOUT. (de Clerqstraat 74) will be the venue for the soirée. After the presentations, there will be room for DJs & Drinks, plus a private sale (labels to be announced). So it’s worth staying a little longer!

Founder of WORKINGMENBLUES, Aleks Kuijpers, will kick off the evening. The production specialist - operating in Amsterdam, Riga and Hangzhou – realises RTW for premium brands in France, UK and The Netherlands and is therefore the perfect source to obtain a realistic sketch of the current material sourcing and RTW making landscape.

Nicky Beausang, part of PVH’s 360Change program, will take over, sharing what it actually takes to transform your organisation before you can start thinking of saving time, costs, and resources. PVH being known for its forward-thinking attitude when it comes to its supply chain and distribution channels.

Following, VP of 3D software solution CLO Virtual Fashion, Lisa Kohlert, will demonstrate how you can multiply and speed up your design processes while saving on resources. Good to know, CLO also provides solutions for start-ups and freelance designers or product developers.

At last, Première Vision Paris has introduced Marketplace Première Vision during its last year’s Fabrics fair in Paris. Director Gaël Séguillon will share key insights on how you can digitalise your supply chain, while having the security of solely dealing with Première Vision-screened and approved producers.

Are you a fashion professional, either in design, product development or production, then don’t miss out on this chance!
