Is my brand the right fit to work with Master Studio Janice Lee, even if it’s not couture or high-end?
Absolutely. While Janice has deep roots in couture and high-end fashion, she partners with brands across a wide spectrum - from startup labels and small-batch collections to established commercial and DTC brands. Whether you're launching your very first product or leveling up an existing line, Janice’s process is adaptable, strategic, and tailored to meet your brand’s goals, aesthetic, and price point. Her specialty lies in translating your unique vision into well-executed, high-quality products - whatever your category or scale.
How do designs actually move into production? What’s the process like?
The design-to-production pipeline is broken down into structured phases - from concept and sketching to sampling, fitting, and factory-ready tech packs.
You’ll get a hands-on, guided experience through each stage:
-
Concept + Design (Moodboards, sketches, fabric sourcing)
-
Product Development (Patterns, prototypes, fit development)
-
Pre-Production (Final specs, grade rules, factory handoff materials)
Master Studio Janice Lee coordinates directly with the manufacturer of your products from her trusted network. You’ll walk away with everything needed to bring your product to life, including clean handoff files, spec sheets, and fit notes - not just beautiful sketches.
How long does the design and development process take from start to finish?
Timelines vary based on complexity, number of styles, and your manufacturing plans but here’s a realistic breakdown:
-
Mini Capsule (2–3 styles): ~3 months
-
Small Collection (5–8 styles): ~4–6 months
-
Full Line (10+ styles): ~6–8 months
You’ll receive a custom timeline during onboarding, based on your goals and launch plan. If you're on a tighter schedule, Master Studio Janice Lee will help you prioritize what’s essential so you can still meet your deadlines with confidence and clarity.
