In this fast-paced apparel industry, knowing how to use Microsoft® Excel is a must for fashion designers and technical designers alike. With the tutorials in our “My Practical Skills: Microsoft Excel for the Fashion Industry” e-book, you will learn everything you need to know to create essential fashion industry worksheets such as spec sheets, grade sheets, fashion line sheets, garment costing sheets & garment production sheets.

Knowing how to use Microsoft Excel is an important skill for any fashion career since it is used in all phases: from design, to production, and even in sales. Apparel designers use Excel to create spec sheets for initial sample requests, technical designers create Excel tech packs and size grades for garment production, and sales teams use fashion line sheets created in Excel to present the current line to apparel buyers. So if you don’t know how to use Microsoft Excel or if your knowledge is limited to just entering data, it’s time to update your skills with our eBook tutorials.

Unfortunately, too many fashion designers don’t know how to use Microsoft Excel to create these important spreadsheets. Most apparel designers just know the basics like how to enter data, resize cells, and change font sizes & colors. As a result, numerous fashion companies are still using outdated means such as filling out tech packs by hand, calculating size grades manually, or using an inadequate program like Adobe Illustrator to produce these fashion spreadsheets!

Our Microsoft Excel eBook tutorials focus on the features used most commonly in the fashion industry, making it easy for you to learn Microsoft Excel. We’ve weeded out the unnecessary, overwhelming features of Excel that you’ll never use, to give you the practical skills needed to easily complete apparel industry projects.
