Warehousing is important to the apparel industry.  Most clothing companies have to be involved with a warehouse at one point or another.  If we are not storing our own merchandise in a warehouse, we are shipping product to another companies warehouse.

Here are a few links that may be of assistance to clothing companies:


The above links will take you to some of the key categories on the Warehouse Search website.

Fashionable Sites Not Yet Fully In Fashion

Here are a few fashionable sites that you are not yet fully in fashion.  In other words, as of today, they still need a bit of improvement.  I am not saying they are horrible, but I am saying that they can be better.  Actually, they "will" be better.  It just may take a little time.  Keep in mind that Rome was not built in a day.  Similar is true for fashion sites.

In time, these fashion relevant sites will be improved.

Any Industry
Fashion Industry Portal
Fashion School News
Good Fabric Suppliers
Printed Company Tshirts 
Printed School T-shirts
Printed Tees
T-shirt Printers
Tshirt Printers
T-shirt Factories

These may not be the best fashion sites at the moment, but they may be some day.  Please be patient.  Learn more about other fashion sites.

Clothing Manufacturers : Research Clothing Factory and Garment Production

Actually "designing" fashion is only a small part of the apparel industry.  In order to be a successful fashion designer, it is important to have a skill set that goes well beyond the design aspects of fashion.  Although I can not discuss all aspects of the apparel industry in this blog post, I would like to give you a few hints in regard to the garment manufacturing aspects of the industry.
Here are a few resources that may help you find clothing manufacturers that can assist you with producing apparel and fashion accessories.
First, I would suggest you visit the clothing manufacturer section on Apparel Search.  From there, you will find clothing factories, trim suppliers and apparel manufacturing contracters such as sewing facilities.
If you can not find enough clothing manufacturers from the links above, you may want to use the search engine at the Apparel Manufacturer website.
By the way, before fashion designers select clothing factories they should also have experience with pattern making or higher a professional pattern maker.
You may also want to check out the How to Become a Fashion Designer website.
As always, you should also join in the discussions at the Fashion Industry Network if you are interested in learning more about fashion design, clothing production, or any other issue relevant to apparel.
