I independently worked on the technical side of the fundamental production process with the team. In addition, I made lay plans and graded patterns using CAD. I was in charge of garments 4 or 5 garments per season. Therefore, I selected linings, interlinings, and attachments by considering the main fabric and finishings, and made sure that the garments keep good quality until they are delivered to shops by contacting factories and checking the garments’ measurements. Occasionally, supported customers as shop staff during peak season and got an opportunity to hear their feedback.
