Garment Makers Are In Short Supply, And Companies Sigh For Difficulties.

Recently, the fourth Chongqing apparel industry "top ten garment plate making masters" competition was held. The top ten players will compete for the national competition on behalf of Chongqing.

It is understood why some clothing imitates the style of the international brand, but there is no big style. The problem is in the version.

Whether in Chongqing or in the whole country,

Both are in short supply.

Plate making is like the soul of clothing. Enterprises sigh for recruiting people.

At the scene of the competition, the judges only provided a picture showing the positive and negative pictures of the suit. The players needed to make a sample fitting the model according to the drawing.

The athletes were methodically compiling technical documents, and then making plate and making sample clothes to make vertical cutting.

For nearly 9 hours, a custom tailored suit was worn on the model.

Many people are not familiar with plate making.

Plate making is a highly technical work, which tests the understanding of the body structure and the precise grasp of the size and position of the plate maker.

In addition to a lot of experience, we need to have high flexibility.

"There is a saying in the industry, three points design seven points plate making, plate making is the soul of clothing."

One of the competition judges, Duan Yuanhong, chairman of Chongqing Duan's Clothing Industrial Co., Ltd., said that the excellent plate maker is the object of competition among the major garment enterprises.

At this stage, many local garment companies often offer tens of thousands of monthly salaries for the engraving division, but they are not good at recruiting people.

If engineering design is not enough, there must be a craftsman spirit.

There are a lot of practitioners. Why is there a shortage of plate making teachers? "Some designers draw good costume drawings, but they do not fit well."

Chen Shangfu, executive vice president and Secretary General of Chongqing garment industry association, said that with the subdivision of the garment market, the refinement of the industry and professional division of labor, the importance of the plate making division is particularly prominent.

In the process of garment production, the plate maker is a practitioner who pforms the effect diagram into a product. He needs to master the engineering design of pattern structure and plate making practice.

At present, the training of clothing talents in China is mainly divided into two aspects: artistic design and engineering design.

Colleges and universities mainly recruit art designers, ignoring the cultivation of talents in engineering design.

In addition to institutions and associations should do a good job in related work, enterprises should also attach importance to plate makers, give various protection, and form a virtuous circle.

Lai Xiaohong, a teacher of Chongqing industry and trade senior technical school, thinks that the reason why the plate making teacher is scarce is that the systematic learning is not comprehensive enough.

"Some plate makers are good at tailoring and plate making, but they don't have enough beauty and shape."

In order to become an excellent plate maker, many young people often insist on not having talent but also endurance and craftsmanship.

"This competition is aimed at improving the position of the plate making teachers in the industry and encouraging the training of garment engineering talents."

Chen Shangfu said that every year the first player of the competition will receive the Chongqing May 1 Labor Medal and certificate issued by the city finance, finance, trade, light industry and textile trade union.

How to develop garment industry relying on "Internet +" to make customization

The lack of plate makers is only a problem in the development of the garment industry.

According to statistics, as of last October, our city has more than 3800 textile and clothing enterprises, realizing annual sales income of about 46 billion yuan.

However, due to the problems of consumption channels, brand cultivation and industrial chain, the total production of clothing is smaller than that of the whole city.

With the increase of consumption level and concept, more and more citizens are no longer satisfied with uniform garments. As traditional manufacturing enterprises, garment enterprises are facing tremendous pressure of industrial upgrading.

Under pressure, how should the garment industry develop? "Relying on" Internet + "to form" Internet + brand, channel, technology "is a direction.

The relevant person in charge of the Municipal Commission said that brand cultivation can not be completed in two days. At present, the layout of the apparel industry chain in the whole country has basically been completed, and the volume of clothing enterprises in Chongqing is small, so it is necessary to find a new way.

In the view of the person in charge, the garment industry should extend to high-end customization, technology and traditional enterprises, and expand the supporting platform of big data, and move towards customized and meticulous intelligent manufacturing.

How to integrate design with consumers and increase brand cultivation is important.

"Now the main body of consumption is after 90 and 00, their consumption concept is very fashionable and very fast. How to make clothes a kind of"

"Combining with existing brands is also a direction of thinking."
