From Sketch to Stitch: Behind the Scenes at Priyanka Jha | Priyanka Jha

Ever wondered how a beautiful piece of ethnic wear is created? At Priyanka Jha, each garment goes through a meticulous process, transforming from a simple sketch to a stunning piece of handcrafted art. Join us as we take you behind the scenes at our atelier in Jharkhand, Jamshedpur, and unveil the journey of our creations from concept to completion.

The Creative Spark: Designing the Sketch

Every garment starts with a creative spark. Our design team begins by brainstorming ideas inspired by traditional motifs, contemporary trends, and customer preferences. Once a concept is finalized, it is translated into detailed sketches that outline the garment's structure, embellishments, and overall aesthetic.

Key Steps in Design

  • Inspiration Gathering: Collecting ideas from cultural heritage, nature, and modern fashion trends.
  • Sketching: Creating detailed designs that serve as blueprints for the garment.
  • Feedback and Refinement: Reviewing sketches with the team to ensure they meet our quality and design standards.

Choosing the Perfect Materials

With the design in hand, the next step is selecting the right materials. We source high-quality fabrics such as silks, cottons, and chiffons, ensuring they align with the design’s requirements. Additionally, we choose embellishments like sequins, beads, and embroidery threads that complement the fabric and enhance the garment's beauty.

Material Selection Process

  • Fabric Sourcing: Choosing fabrics for their texture, color, and suitability to the design.
  • Embellishment Selection: Picking the perfect adornments to highlight the design elements.
  • Quality Check: Ensuring all materials meet our standards for durability and aesthetics.

Artisan Craftsmanship: Bringing Designs to Life

Once materials are selected, our skilled artisans begin the intricate work of bringing the design to life. This stage involves cutting the fabric, hand embroidering intricate patterns, and stitching the garment together. Each piece is crafted with precision and care, reflecting the artisan's expertise and dedication.

Crafting Stages

  • Fabric Cutting: Cutting the fabric according to the design specifications.
  • Hand Embroidery: Embellishing the garment with traditional embroidery techniques.
  • Stitching: Assembling the pieces to form the final garment.

Fitting and Adjustments: Ensuring the Perfect Fit

Before a garment is finalized, it undergoes a series of fittings to ensure it fits perfectly. We create prototypes for initial fittings, making necessary adjustments based on feedback. This iterative process continues until the garment fits flawlessly and meets our high standards of comfort and elegance.

Fitting Process

  • Prototype Creation: Making a sample for the initial fitting.
  • Adjustment Phase: Tweaking the design for optimal fit and comfort.
  • Final Fitting: Confirming the fit before completing the garment.

The Final Touch: Quality Control and Finishing

The last step in our process is quality control and finishing. Each garment is thoroughly inspected to ensure there are no defects and that all design elements are as envisioned. We add final touches, such as pressing and packaging, to present the garment in its best light.

Quality Control Steps

  • Inspection: Checking for any defects or inconsistencies.
  • Final Touches: Pressing and preparing the garment for delivery.
  • Packaging: Carefully packaging the garment to protect it during transit.
