Unlike software written by computer programmers without a sewing machine in sight, StyleFile was developed in the production environment at Patternworks Inc to manage the work flow of hundreds of clients. StyleFile was designed with the input of actual users such as designers, pattern makers, technical designers, graders, marker makers, quality control personnel and fabric purchasing agents. For several years, StyleFile has been used under the rigorous demands of a production environment with daily direct contact with our programming team. The proximity of programming to the sewn product environment is the unparalleled advantage of StyleFile PLM software, having created the vast array of tools in a natural and holistic way.

Ease of use
The central interface is clean and visually pleasing without the need to dive deep through endless menus and submenus. Tools are where the user would expect them to be and they do what a user would expect them to do, making it easy, intuitive and inexpensive to learn. As certified Microsoft developers, the latest programming technologies are implemented upon release. Flexible and endlessly configurable, the design features include the newest standard -the ribbon interface- allowing individual users to change color schemes, hide features they do not use and to customize toolbars.

Build style data based on your needs
StyleFile can be used for simple garments or more complex apparel items. Fabrics and trims can be shared between divisions. And points of measurements are attached to all the necessary size groups that you work with. Whether it is a need just for costing, a way to track the fit of a garment or the entire process, StyleFile can easily supply the right tools for achieving your goals in a seamless and quick way.

Search tools with easy-to-use filters
Finding data within StyleFile is fast and easy with the many filtering tools. Users can customize and save search grids based on their job responsibilities and needs. Find styles by season, division, pattern, style number, cut ticket number, contractors, dates and more. Combine the search grids with a few simple clicks of the button to create current work in progress reports—a valuable tool to manage timelines.

Manage materials inventory and shrinkage data
StyleFile includes areas to record fabric and trim inventory. This can include sample and production yardage, or quotes only. Record shrinkage information down to the lot and roll. Allocate styles based on the inventory and shrinkage. At the end of the season, you can track to see where your extra yardage and trims are being warehoused.
