it’s not that hard. All you need is a specia lkind of paper and a good printer . If you go to staples, or best buy and ask the people who work there, they’ll help you out.
The clothing industry, as you can well imagine, is a very competitive one. To succeed takes knowledge, patience, talent and a bit of luck. As far as the knowledge bit goes, I found some sources that will assist you further.
Associations may be a good avenue to explore as well. These organizations will address many of the thoughts, questions and concerns you’ll inevitably have about the clothing industry as well as many you haven’t anticipated yet. See the source box for some relevant links.
There’s nothing quite like research – the more you know about the clothing industry, the better. There are plenty of free informational resources out there. Check the source box for links to articles.
Also, here are some book titles that may interest you:

Hope that helps! I wish you much success happiness in all your ventures!
