Frequently Asked Questions

How do I design vintage clothing with AI?+
Describe the garment in plain words: the silhouette, the fabric and the vintage details you want (retro prints, classic silhouettes, nostalgic details). Smasher Studio draws it as a product image, then shows it on a model or as a flat sketch, so you can judge it before any sample is cut.
What does a vintage collection need before production?+
Designs you have seen on a body, a production pattern for each garment, a fit sample corrected once, and the pattern graded to your sizes. Smasher Studio covers the designs and the images, and a professional pattern maker cuts the DXF pattern from $29 per garment.
How much does it cost to design a vintage collection with AI?+
A free account gets monthly credits to try it, and paid plans start at $19 a month. Patterns are priced per garment by piece count: $29, $59 or $129. For a full launch budget, see our guide to fashion brand startup costs.
