Testimonials

 
We have been working with RB Patterns for over four years, and their support has been essential to our growth. As a luxury womenswear brand working with natural materials across knitwear, coating, suiting, leather clothing, and silk wear, their broad expertise is invaluable.
I am a perfectionist, and there are often multiple ways to achieve the best result. RB Patterns consistently interpret my design briefs, accommodate refinements, and collaborate to find the right approach. Different fabrics can change the way garments fit, and their deep understanding of garment engineering and fashion knowledge ensures every challenge is resolved thoughtfully.
As a small business, having a trusted team who care as much as we do gives me confidence in fit and quality. This trust has strengthened customer loyalty and allowed us to broaden our offerings.
Collaborating with Scott, Glen and their team is always the highlight of my week.

A.EMERY has been working with Glen and Scott from RB Patterns since early 2023. They were brought into the A.EMERY fold to facilitate the launch of our ready to wear collection which has had continued growth over the past 2 years - a true testament to the quality of fit. We truly appreciate the wholistic support the RB Patterns are able to provide, from style hand over through to graded specs and lay plans when necessary. Glen or Scott are always available to help and support us through all stages of sampling and production. Together we have been able to work through some intricate styles with advanced levels of pattern making. They are the ultimate support in the creation of luxury product.

I have worked with Glen and Scott from day one of my brand, almost 4 years ago. Growing with skilled and experienced pattern makers means that there is no limit to what we can accomplish as a brand. We have now grown into many categories (sportswear, workwear, tailoring) and we are preparing for womenswear items this year. Working with RB Patterns means that we have reliable, internationally accepted patterns and a robust process to guide designs from idea to samples to finished product. They are great teachers and have formed much of my education in the technical side of fashion. Having a workflow you can trust is important for our consistency as a high quality brand.

He brings a wealth of knowledge from the industry, not only in his exceptional pattern making and construction ability, but also through his connections to local manufacturers and his overview of how the fashion industry works. Now with his partner Scott on board, the business has taken another leap forward and extended their services to computer pattern grading and more.

The fashion industry is in my blood and I have, over the many years in business always been interested in up and coming designers. I, like many others discovered Glen when he won the Melbourne Fashion festival Designer of the Year award. Over the years I have been working with Glen on many projects. He is top of mind when I need an expert, his tailoring skills, his flair for style, proportion and cut are exceptional. As a person his manor is warm and he always delivers a quality product within the agreed time frame.

RB Patterns are the industry leaders. Their team, Scott and Glen are always professional, approachable and kind to deal with - a business with great ethics. I’ve used other pattern makers in the past and the results were terrible to say the least. I highly recommend Scott and Glen to anyone wanting five star service and results.

On top of that they are just lovely people to work with and feel privileged to have such incredible skills as part of our team, it has been an absolute pleasure working with them. I would definitely recommend them to business’s looking for professional pattern makers.

If you ask Vincent LI how he feels working with ROLLASON BOWRING DESIGN he will say to is more of a collaboration. Since establishing the brand in 2014 he has been working with RBD on his emerging menswear brand. I love working with RBD as it’s an easy process of communication even though my designs are very technically challenging. They are very enthusiastic to be involved in all parts of the design process, which is rare in this industry. Because the designs are quite unconventional it requires the same type of thinking and approaches in developing the patterns and garments. Glen and Scott have a great depth of knowledge and expertise and I trust their sampling and finishing of their garments. Their patterns are always precise and helps prevent any production problems that could occur working in this level of design and manufacture.
