Workshop
The Workshop is a CMT factory that was created in 2007 to fill the industry need for a quality based, small production facility for national designers and retailers. The unit consists of some of the most experienced machinists and pattern cutters in the UK who operate on a wide cross section of machinery. Although we have a broad range of existing clientele including Jaeger, Asos.com and 80 other designers our staff is always open to working with new talent.

The Workshop’s services consist of patternmaking, toiling, first fit sampling and small production while also offering a grading service through GradeRite. All pattern, toile and sample services are charged on a £18 plus VAT on an hourly basis for FashionCapital members and £22.50 plus VAT on an hourly basis for non members. These prices are effective as of 30th December 2011.

All new clients must first meet with our factory manager to discuss their production needs. The initial hour long consultation fee is waived for all annual FashionCapital members however is £30 plus vat for non-members. All consultations must be booked in advance by reaching Esther at 0208 800 9979 or esther@fashion-enter.com

Please note as of 1st February 2012 any credit card transactions carry a 2% surcharge. There must also be cleared funds in our account before the release of any goods and services.

Alongside our production facility the Workshop also houses an educational entity where courses such Stitch in Time program and Cad/Cam run on an consistant basis.
