Poubelle Magnifique

Poubelle Magnifique , 1221 Rue Crescent, Montréal, QC H3G 2B1, Canada

About the event

For this edition, we've got the talented designer duo UNTTLD (José St-Jacques and Simon Bélanger, in business since 2011) as well as  Marie Lavergne and Arianne Michaud, pros with over 15 years of design, product development, and sourcing experience. They'll be answering your questions, and tackling hurdles in local and offshore production. We'd like to cover various aspects of product development, from pricing to sourcing, cutting and sewing, packaging, costing, and delivery. You have the opportunity to ask specific questions. If you would like your questions to be considered, please submit them through the Google form below. The conversation will be recorded, transcribed, and published as a "Words of Advice" article in our upcoming print edition.

Question Submission Form:  https://forms.gle/pwX37ycWBP9j3m7KA

Note that before and after the TALK, you can have a drink, mingle, and check out some unique products for sale,  developed by LaSalle College's 5th-semester students. Please support them, as times are tough, especially for these design students trying to gather funds for their grad collections. You can pre-order their designs through our SUPPLY shop, and anyone with proof of purchase will receive free access to the event.

Don't skip this chance to explore the production maze and get some tips. See you soon.
