So for the past 3 weeks I have been working at an apparel company as a design intern for seamless apparel (mainly sports bras). It's been interesting. I definatly figured out that I would rather be in product research and development. From my education in textiles and apparel I can't just "dream up a new design", I rather design effeciently. For example in seamless knitwear it is important to consider not putting decorative knit stitiches where the garment is being shaped. Apparently those that are currently designing for these products don't consider that and leave it up to the technicians. Anyhoo, this was my welcome on my computer tower. More posts to come all about NYC.
