Season planning
Market and target review, concept, color and fabric direction, styles by category

A fashion collaboration platform connecting experts and technology.
We bring the right professionals together and manage a connected workflow from kickoff to review and handoff.
Fashion outsourcing takes more than finding a talented designer. The brand's direction, timeline, scope and deliverable standards must be shared with the whole team. GODONG is built around that collaboration.
Explore how GODONG works ↗Choose the scope your project needs, from full-season outsourcing to design for one category, sample development or production handoff.
Market and target review, concept, color and fabric direction, styles by category
Design proposals, style discussions, revisions and approvals, collection direction
Pattern specifications, sample tech packs, fitting reviews and sample revisions
Production tech packs, specifications and BOM handoff, production partner coordination
Once the creative direction is set, we define tasks, owners and dates for each stage. Designer output, brand feedback and operations coordination stay connected instead of being scattered across different channels.
Recommend designers by expertise, then assign PM, controller and task owners after brand confirmation.
Track stages, individual tasks, meetings, milestones and status in list and Gantt views.
Manage the flow from instructions and submissions to change requests, v2 resubmissions and approval.




People are not assigned unilaterally. The operations team reviews suitable experts, and teams are formed after designer acceptance and brand confirmation.
Scope, schedule, RFP and reference files
Define stages, deliverables and ownership
Designer invitation, acceptance and brand confirmation
Work, meetings, version revisions and approvals
Finalize deliverables and coordinate production
GODONG operator FAPERLINK also researches fashion data analytics and AI. Through market rankings, image labeling and enterprise data, we explore ways to support future design decisions.
※ Separate data/AI initiatives are distinct from GODONG's current collaboration features.
Explore Technology & AI ↗A complete season or one essential step—start your next collaboration.

A network of experts. A new way to collaborate.
We connect fashion brands, designers, planners, pattern makers, sampling specialists and production partners on a project basis. Choose the expertise you need—from a complete season to a single task—while our operations team helps coordinate timelines, collaboration and deliverables.
FAPERLINK describes this approach as DI (Design Integration), supported by an online project collaboration system.
Three operating principles highlighted in FAPERLINK's outsourcing introduction.
We assemble specialists for womenswear, menswear, childrenswear, casualwear, sportswear, denim and knitwear according to the project—and collaborate with existing brand teams.
Define the scope around the goal: a full season, selected categories, design-only work or sampling. There is no single fixed outsourcing package.
A connected system for dates, owners, meetings, task templates and deliverable reviews helps teams share progress and decision history.
Roles are assigned for each project, keeping timelines and deliverable standards consistent even after new members join.
See collaboration models ↗| Brand / client | Set goals and scope, review designers, provide feedback and approve deliverables |
|---|---|
| Professional designers | Plan, design and submit work for assigned categories and styles |
| PM | Coordinate the project direction, timeline and delivery team. A designer or internal staff member may serve as PM. |
| Controller | A project role managing assignments, schedules, progress and deliverable records |

GODONG — Fashion project collaboration platform
See how we bring together the specialists and processes your brand needs.

Show your expertise and join new collaborations.
A GODONG designer profile is more than a name and career history. Main responsibilities, product categories, target ages, design styles, markets and tools help us match designers with suitable projects.
Based on GODONG's project matching and collaboration workflow.
Create an account and enter contact details, basic information and specialties.
Add images, PDFs and links that demonstrate your project experience and expertise.
Review the scope and timeline of an invitation from operations, then decide whether to accept.
Once the brand confirms participation, complete assigned tasks and submit or revise deliverables.
Describe not only the finished design but the season, product category, target customer, role and scope you personally handled.
Show multiple outputs through files or links so brands can assess your expertise for a relevant project.

An experienced designer may also serve as a project's PM.



GODONG development test screen; not a public project result
No. Review the requested scope and schedule before deciding whether to accept.
It is designed for restricted use in project matching and brand reviews, not as a public gallery.
Yes. PM and controller are project roles, not separate member types. They are assigned according to experience and the team structure.
That depends on the project timeline, workload, confidentiality and contract terms.
Register your experience and discover suitable collaboration opportunities.

The expertise you need, when you need it.
Every brand has different staff, planning capabilities and development timelines. Rather than one fixed package, we combine the right level of planning, collaboration structure and design approach.
FAPERLINK's modular outsourcing framework is reflected in GODONG's project briefing workflow.
The right model depends on how your internal team and GODONG specialists share responsibilities.
For brands with clear creative direction that need rapid design support. An operations controller coordinates with the necessary designers.
The brand's MD, director or PM shares responsibilities with outside designers, combining internal direction with external expertise.
For brands without a dedicated design team or expanding a new line. The project team and timeline are designed around a PM, controller and specialist designers.
Brands, operations staff and designers exchange information in a clear sequence.
Upload company and brand information, goals, scope, schedule, RFP and company profile documents.
Agree on project stages, templates, roles, deliverables, dates and contractual terms.
Operations recommends designers. After they accept and the brand confirms, the team is finalized.
Assign PM and controller roles, then run stage-by-stage tasks, meetings, reviews and revisions.
In the brief, clarify not just styles and quantities but target season, markets, categories, planning readiness and sample requirements.
Start a project request ↗Brand introduction, target customers, price positioning and channels

Deliverables do not end when files are sent. Teams use task templates, submit results and continue through review, revision requests, resubmission and approval.
Actual scope and procedures may vary by project agreement and setup.

We welcome brand, designer and partnership inquiries.

New possibilities for fashion data and technology.
Fashion businesses have more than market images and rankings: design, sample, costing, manufacturing and quality data also matter. Linking them by shared style, product and order references makes meaningful comparisons and analysis possible.
Applied Data Foundry (ADF): conceptual data workflow
These are separate initiatives, not one combined commercial service. They share an emphasis on understanding data context and applying insights to real work.
FashionTrendScope is a fashion data project using market rankings, product images and AI-derived visual labels to compare categories, time periods and markets, and help identify promising design reference sources.
Category rankings, products and images from fashion platforms in Korea and abroad
Category, color, fit, silhouette, details, fabric and cross-market comparison
Validated proof-of-concept functions are distinguished from proposed future extensions
ADF proposes connecting ERP, PLM, MES, documents, images and internal records so teams can analyze practical questions about cost, lead times, quality and design.
Define shared identifiers, codes, units and relationships
Sources, history, access controls and validation rules
Choose real business questions, then implement and validate a limited scope first
GODONG currently focuses on practical collaboration: expert matching, project schedules, task templates, meetings and deliverable reviews. In the future, we are exploring ways to connect work records and fashion data to support better decisions.
Let's discuss fashion data applications and digital collaboration.
