This episode highlights the pain points of well-intentioned aspiring fashion designers.

If a sketch were all one needed, then anyone could be a fashion designer... But it isn't.

You don't need to know how to pattern or sew - you just need to communicate with those who do.

There are a lot of steps between making a sketch, and having it manufactured into wearable clothing... 

I built you a staircase. 

Fashion lines are expensive, but they cost even more to start if you don't know what you're doing.

The majority of the work happens before you ever approach a factory for manufacturing.

You can hire out the skills you don't have, but understand that your adventure buddies (i.e. pattern makers, seamstresses, manufacturers) expect you to at least bring a map before they climb onboard.

You've got work to do.

Tap into the industry knowledge needed to have a fashion design manufactured.
