Description

Australia imports almost​​​​​​​​ one and a half billion garments every year, but only 3% of clothing sold is actually made here. 


 


In light of this imbalance, what can be done to help Australian designers achieve their dreams locally?  


 


In this episode, Harriette talks to Julia van der Sommen, the Director of Sample Room. Based in Collingwood, Julia and her team help designers launch their labels with a range of domestic services — from pattern making to manufacturing.
