Chuck + Vilma present
The FactoryRunway
Where fashion is made. Three days move from the classroom to production and then to the runway. No experience is required. The work is the point.
The premise
Start before the runway.
Most people meet fashion after the labor has disappeared. This program starts earlier, with the decisions, machines and people that turn an idea into a garment.
Classroom
Chuck and Vilma break down the idea, the customer, the garment and the business around it.
Production
The digital file becomes printed fabric, cut panels, sewing, inspection and a finished piece.
Runway
The garment meets a body, a camera and an audience. The choices become visible.

The business
We separated design possibilities from finished inventory.
This is not instant production and it is not unlimited supply. The system prints fabric or panels, then cuts, sews, inspects and ships. Planning is built around roughly 14 business days.
For a designer, that means less finished inventory and less guessing. It also means understanding the entire chain, not only the part that photographs well.
