Need to Make a Decision
Define repeatable shape rules that keep different garments connected without making the range feel uniform.
We'll use them to write your prompt.
Completed ✓
Make Your Play
Give us the situation. We’ll build the prompt.
Set the collection's shape logic before more sketching creates conflicting proportions, random lengths, or too many unrelated fit ideas.
Your answers save as you type.
What you'll do
This is the plan inside your prompt. Add your details first. Then follow these steps with ChatGPT or Claude.
02
Resolve the key shape decisions
Use focused questions to settle any conflicts involving proportion, length, volume, fit, or layering.
03
Build the silhouette system
Turn the gathered direction into named silhouette families and rules that apply across product types.
04
Test the range boundaries
Use the repeat, variation, avoid, and sketch-check rules to spot weak links before further development.

Find the Silhouette Rules for the Range
Tell us what the prompt needs to know
Start with the questions below. Each answer personalizes the playbook and builds the prompt you’ll use at the end.
Your situation
Describe the collection idea, mood, visual tension, and any non-negotiable themes.
0/10000
Describe who will wear the range, where it will be worn, and what movement or comfort needs matter.
0/10000
List the garment categories or specific pieces currently planned for the first range.
0/10000
List the proportions, lengths, volumes, references, fit ideas, and practical limits already influencing the range.

Assembled prompt
Beginner instructions
Use relative shape language instead of technical measurements. List the garments already under consideration, even if the range isn’t final. If a fit idea is uncertain, label it as an experiment rather than leaving it out.
Advanced instructions
Include intended balance across the full lineup, not just garment-by-garment fit. Note where pattern cutting, fabric behavior, layering, or movement may affect whether a proposed silhouette works.
Use this when
Your concept is clear enough to start designing, but the garments still need a shared approach to proportion, length, volume, and fit.
You'll need
- Collection concept
- Target wearer and setting
- Planned product types
- Shape inputs
You'll get
- A one-sentence silhouette direction with a clear visual point of view
- Relative rules for proportion, length, volume, fit, and layering
- Every planned product type assigned to a silhouette family or flagged for revision
- Repeat, variation, and avoid rules ready for sketch review
- A six-question check for testing new designs.
