01

Give the artwork a role

Decide whether the design should lead the garment or reward a closer look. A large back graphic creates a different impression from a small chest detail. Try a simple placement mockup before committing to a decoration method.

02

Explore print and embroidery

Printing can carry a graphic across the garment surface. Embroidery introduces visible thread and texture. Rather than choosing only from a screen image, review the proposed treatment as a physical sample and discuss how the artwork should be adapted.

03

Add a point of light

Rhinestones introduce sparkle and a dimensional surface. Consider the spacing, stone colours and how the motif relates to seams and pockets. A sparse arrangement and a dense graphic have very different personalities. Confirm the attachment and finish on the intended fabric.

04

Edit the combination

When combining techniques, give each one a purpose. Let one detail take the lead and use the others to support it. Record the approved placement, colours and treatment so the final reference is clear.
