Picking fabrics for your fashion collection is a delicate balance between creative exploration and business logistics. In this video, I go over plenty of points about both, divided into 3 sections: questions to ask yourself before you shop for fabrics, while your shopping, and after you've chosen your fabrics.

Please give this video a thumbs up if you learned something new today! Don't forget to practice putting together fabric stories!
Can you please make a video on how to choose the right CMT and also, how to choose a Pattern Maker. In my town, not we dont have many places that can do both, nevermind just help guide a new designer to get the first collection done and online. Please help!!! PS _ i did watch the kathleen one, it is great!
You all prolly dont care at all but does anybody know a method to log back into an Instagram account??
I stupidly forgot my account password. I love any help you can give me.
@Connor Royce instablaster =)
@Killian Solomon i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff now.
Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Killian Solomon It worked and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thanks so much you really help me out :D
How I wish I had you as a teacher!
Me too.
I usually get so overwhelmed going into the fabric store to shop but know I feel like I have a guideline to go by. Thank you!
This was so helpful! Thank you for posting your awesome advice on UA-cam.
I just wanna say I appreciate all that you do.
You are a awesome teacher thank you so much for all that you do please keep the videos coming ❤
Love your teaching / delivery method.
everything about the vid, illustration, tone of voice is perfect in all your videos, it makes fashion design and learning much easier. Thank you for this channel
Thank you Zoe! This is quite helpful for breaking it down into an easy-to-follow systematic creative thought process. To see how you sketch is great learning too.
This video includes so much pertinent information! and it's free! Thank you so much. it will definitely make it easier for me when selecting my fabrics.
Your videos are eternally relevant
Oh yes! You threw a lot of good information into my face. I have to admit that I feel a bit overwhelmed about the fabrics' subject, but as you always say: it's our media, I do have to go and immerse myself in the subject, I am sure that as I get more familiar with it I will enjoy it more and more. Thanks for share so generously your knowledges and to motivate by transmitting your respect and passion for fashion.
Your videos are the best!! Tha k you so much for all you do for all of us 💕💕
Best UA-cam channel ever... it's extremely helpful... thank u so much Zoe...
Wow, again Zoe Hong thank you so very much for making these great videos with very relatable facts to the Fashion Industry! On one hand you encourage us to be creative while on the other hand you make sure we keep in mind the true facts that we will need in order to be able to make it in the real world of clothing. Like you mentioned as well as the guest you had as a Costume Designer in a previous video, its so important to know fabrics because in the end its what makes it or breaks it. So fortunate to live in times when we all have access to great information like your channel!
Thank god i found your channel! I've been watching your videos all day.You're lot better than my designer teacher ❤ xoxo
i'm pursuing fashion design as the creative strand for my SCALE and i'm using your videos as reference!! 💖 thank you for being helpful

Zoe te amo!!
I love you zoee!!!!!!!!!! Ima fan fan!!!!!
Love your vids
Thanks for sharing 👍
where do you get all those fabric samples??? i love so many of them! so much cotton!!!
Gosh, you’re so cool 🥺
hey zoe hong .. one question that after done with colour board , cloth choose n ll.. we should go with actual design of a piece of cloth right?
Hi, Ms Zoe. What are the color pencils/ballpens did you use? And is this tracing papers? Thank you and God bless you :)
Hi =) Can you suggest some books in wich is explained in particular the use of fashion fabrics depending of season?
Thank u for this . I m now so close to eorup i m in Turkey i well cross the borthers to gress for better life and be designer i hope soo thank u .
Thanks Zoe. Am your online student
Thanks can you give us the movements of manquin i did not find it
I used to do this when I was a student. however when working in a large convection factory, it is better to use a straight body design, and clarify cuts and creases in the design so that pattern makers and tailors can translate it more easily
Did you try fashionary? And could you maybe put the videos in maybe a text like format?
Hey Zoe...thank you so much! How do you get fabric suppliers to send you these swatches?
You ask the supplier, but you need to be a legit fashion business first.
Can you please do a video series on sports wear, Athleisure trend
What do you want to learn?
I need to know what you’re using to sketch. That underlying body shape mat (GENIUS) and the thickness of paper you’re sketching on. K thanks byeeeeeee
The paper is marker paper and the "body shapes" are figure templates I made that I sell at shop.zoehong.com
Hi Zoe I was worried for you , how are you feeling now ? ,Pls don't do much work if you are ill .
I'm fine, you can stop worrying. Thank you.
I know you said it’s not important but can you do a video on your favorite art tools/supplies for sketching and design
Look up My Art Supplies video in my Different Media playlist.
Is there a video talking about all the fabrics arounds ? Im learning by myself , and sometimes its kinda overwhelming because i dont know which direction to choose . I wanna make like a * paleter * but with samples of fabrics ....
Watch my Fabrics playlist.
I have one question can we buy those templates from u? Sorry but I'm new Idk much
Not that exact one, but I sell similar ones at zoehong.etsy.com
Me early again 😃
Hello
I am a cistomized batìk fabric producer tell me how to learn sketching to show my customers
@Zoe Hong Would you be a star and make a video on 'different fabrics to braid with'? Covering textures, softness, asthetic appeal etc
I would really enjoy that and it would be a massive help for me!
Keep up the awesome work. We share the same level of excitement when picking fabrics.
Something which might make you laugh. Do you name you're sewing machine? I named mine Penelope and I speak to her as if she was my first vehicle getting me from A to B 😂🙈🙊
No, that's a matter of personal preference and usage. My only advice is to pick something that doesn't fray easily, like leather. Unless you want a frayed look. See, even that is about preference.
@@zoehongteaches It needs to be the darkest black i can find, preferrably eco-friendly, but not essential, have a distressed look, but not fall apart, not hugely exspensive and to cover a full length robe (head to toe) Any ideas?
I'm also looking for a smooth, soft to the skin, black, non frayable, fabric, something which can be good for knots too. Any advice would be grand :)
I am from croatia and im 14 and i really dream about being fashion designer. I even hope after high school i will go abroad in fashion design school.
P.S love u Zoe❤
Im so stupid 😂
So me 😭 i bought i don't know how many fabrics before even having any project when the lockdown ended, now i still don't know what to do with it lol
What type of paper is that really thin one?
marker paper
@@zoehongteaches thank you!
Do you sell templates?
Yes, at zoehong.etsy.com
Me: I should start my homework
Also me: oh a Zoe Hong vid I haven't seen yet! That's like homework.
Close enough. hahahahahahaha~
watching this as I'm throwing away fabric 🥲
Sorry for the spelling mistake zoe
"go to your favorite designer!" me: *goes to h&m*
