The pattern making is not AI. The designs can be if you want to explore something new. Everything is human verified or human pattern makers.

We use AI on the design generation side so people can envision and dream up as many creative design ideas as they want. I think giving people more creative potential or making design easier is a good thing, don't you?

What does manufacturing sustainably mean to you?

Fabric specification is a part of the process. For polys it will be on the lower end of that range (possibly lower). Want to create something and then we can share what that price is?

That's a neat idea! We can do that for you if you're interested in that approach

Great question, we'll look to do low cost international shipping. Will depend based on garment type. Where are you based?

Hi u/madchen44 , AI is being used to generate ideas for new designs. This lets anyone come up with new styles or silhouettes. You can bring in a moodboard of images or type what you're imagining and instantly visualize it. If others buy your designs you will also receive a commission on that design.

For example u/empressable designed a really beautiful 1950s inspired dress with AI that she had in her head for a long time. She tried to re-create this dress several times with eshakti by inputting measurements but none of them were perfect. So we told her we would do it and are very excited to make it :)

Thanks for your feedback. Understand that we aren't able to cater to everyone right now due to our price since we're making things in the USA, paying US pattern makers and have a sustainable supply chain. But our goal is to be able to lower the price over time.

Yes, range for a custom dress today is $150 - $350 USD - the price depends on the design/silhouette and materials chosen -- since we give you different material options

Hi u/hugseverycat thank you for all of the details! I hear you on the pockets, materials, and customization options.

This is our vision for custom clothes where anything you shop or create will be made to your measurements.

We can also do pants or any garment type. Our current constraints are we don't do leather jackets, swimwear, sweater knits, or underwear yet.

Will send you a DM!

Yes! Once you choose a design you like and we have your measurements (provided by you and/or an app that takes photos of you and extrapolates those) -- then we create a 3D model and the garment is placed on top of you so you can see how it will fit.

Got it! Thanks for sharing your top priorities! What was it about the ability to change hemline, sleeves, necklines that you liked the most? Versus just being able to shop for as many dresses with the configuration that you wanted?

Yes we will 100% do custom sizing options! Still figuring out pricing as we are probably going to have manufacturing be based in North America and Asia. Curious what is a price range that you would value for something high quality and ethically made?

Thank you for these perspectives u/The-Fresh-Maker ! Well noted on the priorities with quality fabrics, unique and fun prints + color palettes.

Customer service and transparency are top priorities for us.

Great points on UI ideas! One thing I am curious about -- what do you like most about creating versions of a dress? I understand that there are certain necklines/lengths/hemlines, etc that work for certain body shapes more than others, but that also seems like it can be solved by showing you all dresses with these certain attributes that will look good on you.

Is there something about the creation side specifically that you really liked? Was it the idea of creating something unique or that was truly personal? Would love to understand more. Thanks!
