The eastern San Fernando Valley has numerous small M2 zoned shops and home garages which contract for sewing; whether a prototype for the new or established designer, or to support a large contract, or a growing option to keep manufacturing domestically.
Additionally, studio designers scout across Southern California for fabric, trim, notions, and skilled artists and laborers for the latest project they are pitching or for an existing "show" contract with an ever- changing parameter.
