Apparel designs are as important as any other category of brands that you see in the market and they need as much attention that any other brand design would require from you. In order to make successful apparel designs and ensure that they will work for you even for years, all you have to do is to strategize and plan your moves nicely. In this part of our blog, we will share a few tips & tricks that will help you understand the need of creating apparel designs first because that is like super necessary and in the second part of our blog, you will be able to view our carefully created list of vintage apparel designs for inspiration.

So, for any apparel brand and its designing, you need to know if there is any need of it. We are saying that because you would also know that there are thousands of brands around the world and they are catering to the needs and demands of their audiences as well so what is it that will make your brand to stand out? What are you offering and how much are you going to charge your audience for that? What are your tag line and brand statement that you will use to represent your brand? Also, do you plan on creating a brand culture around your brand as well because that is something that you will have to do!?

All of these questions will help you devise a strong business plan and you will also be able to execute in a way it is supposed to be executed. But you also have to accept the fact that you might need to take some risks and take the roads that seem challenging because only then you will be able to stand out in the crowd and your target audience will love you for what you are and how you can be their preferred or most loved brands too.

For an apparel brand, it is extremely important for the business to build a culture so that it becomes a feeling. Any and every brand that is still in the market and operational too is because of the feeling that it creates within the persons. And honestly, it does come from within that you see one of your favorite brands selling their products and you feel like spending your money on them. Work on how you will shape what your audiences feel about your business in a natural way.

Your next step is to identify your target audience – if you know you niche you will be able to fill it too but if you haven’t worked on it yet, it is about time that you start doing it. Hoodies, plain t-shirts, wide legged pants; what is it that is not there in the market and how your audience can pair that with something else, these things can help you decide what you would want to finalize as the focal point to start talking about your business.

Then work on the profile of your brand, whatever will go live on your hoardings, billboards, flyers and everything will else can also go to your clothing articles as well but always keep this in mind that audiences love brands that have a powerful story to tell. That can be done through your designs in one way or the other and we are here to nudge you guys a little so that you can start thinking about your branding and designs as well.

All the vintage apparel designs that we have added to our extensive and interesting collection are unique and speak for themselves. By looking at these designs, you can think of characters and images that can be associated with the traits of your products as well for example; for your leather articles, you can pick the animal character the leather is of or you can associate it with strength and toughness through an eagle’s face.

You can use roses, motorbikes, and electricity sign, skeleton and so much more – just think through the process and pick the design elements that you think will complement the business and the products that you are planning to sell.

And that’s all for today! Check out our vintage apparel t-shirt design ideas and feel free to get inspired.
