Built by an apparel Creative Director and Fashion Designer with 20 years in the industry, including 14 years helping scale one brand from startup to a global business generating tens of millions in annual revenue.

What this looks like in practice

Here is what we actually do.

Your team already writes product pages, plans campaigns, builds launch content, and sits on a pile of customer reviews nobody has time to read.

We set up simple, AI-assisted ways to do that same work faster. Built in tools you already have. Written in your brand voice. With clear rules about where a human makes the call.

Then we teach your team to run it without us.

That is the whole model. No platforms to install. No six-month transformation. One piece of your workload at a time, made faster and more consistent.

Why industry fluency matters

AI works better when it understands apparel.

Most AI tools are built for generic productivity. Apparel teams need something more specific: product context, taste, launch calendars, customer language, and ecommerce reality.

That is where industry fluency matters. The right AI system should make the team faster without making the brand sound like everyone else.

PDPs that change tone every launch

Campaign briefs rebuilt from scratch

AI experiments with no shared rules

Founder bottlenecks and fuzzy handoffs

The point of view

Generic AI tricks are not enough.

You need AI systems built around product, taste, customer language, launch pressure, and the way apparel creative work actually gets approved.

Flume & Field helps teams become more fluent in AI without handing brand voice, creative judgment, or product storytelling to generic software defaults.

AI consulting offers

Three AI offers for apparel teams.

01 / Diagnose

AI Creative Audit

$2,000

Think of it as a home inspection before the renovation.

We look at how your team currently gets creative work done, from product pages to campaigns, and find where things are slow, inconsistent, or stuck on one person. Then we tell you where AI genuinely helps, where it should not touch your work, and what to fix first.

You walk away with: a written report and a 30-day plan. What to fix, in what order, and who should own it.

02 / Build

Apparel AI Workflow Sprint

$6,500 · 3 to 4 weeks

You know that one process that breaks every launch. The Sprint fixes it.

Over 3 to 4 weeks, we take one recurring piece of work and rebuild it so it runs fast and consistent. AI handles the repetitive parts. Your team keeps the judgment calls.

You walk away with: a mapped workflow, a prompt sequence or simple custom assistant built for the job, 2 to 3 working templates, real examples using your own products, a review checklist so your team knows what good looks like, live training, and 10 business days of support after handoff.

Training happens live over Zoom. For LA-area brands, in-person training at your studio is available.

18 proven starting points across product, design, brand, marketing, and leadership. Or bring your own.

See all 18 workflows

For product and design teams

Collection Planning Assistant. One organized way to plan each season, from inspiration to line plan, with clear review checkpoints.
Trend + Category Intelligence Tracker. Tracks runway, retail, and culture signals and translates them into what they actually mean for your brand.
Print + Color Intelligence Assistant. Turns trend inputs and your brand filters into a consistent seasonal print and color direction.
Product Storytelling + PDP Builder. Turns approved product facts into accurate, on-brand product page copy, every product, every launch.
Tech Pack + Product Development Assistant. Keeps design intent, sample comments, and revision notes organized so development handoffs stop leaking.
Collection Merchandising Assistant. Supports assortment decisions: category mix, pricing architecture, color balance, and where the gaps are.

For brand and marketing teams

Campaign Brief Builder. Every campaign starts from one aligned brief instead of a scattered Slack thread.
Customer Voice Intelligence Assistant. Mines your reviews and comments for the exact language, objections, and insights that sell.
Competitor Marketing Signal Tracker. Competitor launches and campaigns become a recurring brief: what happened, what it means, what to do.
Brand Voice Assistant. Your voice written as rules and examples, so everything, human-made or AI-assisted, sounds like you.
Email Campaign Builder. Campaign goals become email strategy, briefs, copy drafts, and subject lines with built-in review points.
Creator Brief + UGC Builder. Structured creator briefs, shot requirements, and approval steps so creator content comes back usable the first time.

For leadership

Creative Review Assistant. Checks work against your brand and campaign criteria before it lands on the founder's desk.
Meeting Brief + Decision Assistant. Agendas, decisions, owners, and follow-ups captured in one reliable record.
AI Training + Adoption Assistant. Role-based onboarding and guidance so your team actually uses what gets built.
Knowledge Base + Prompt Library Builder. One trusted home for your brand knowledge, prompts, examples, and usage rules.
Custom Workflow Build. Name the recurring problem. We build the workflow around it.

03 / Connect

AI Creative Operating System

$12,000

Not software you install. A private online workspace where everything lives in one place.

This is for when the problem is not one broken process. It is that your ecom person, your content person, and your designer all work in separate bubbles, each using AI their own way, and the output shows it.

We build one shared home base: your brand guidelines, product details, and customer insights, plus connected workflows that pull from all of it. Whoever writes the product page or the campaign brief, it sounds like your brand and uses accurate information.

You walk away with: a private workspace your team logs into, a Prompt Hub organized by task, written brand voice rules, optional AI assistants trained on your brand, and full team training.

One shared workspace, built in simple tools your team already understands
A Prompt Hub: pre-written prompts in your brand voice for every recurring task
Your brand voice, written as rules
Product storytelling frameworks
Optional AI assistants trained on your brand
Team training and a handoff guide

Training happens live over Zoom. For LA-area brands, in-person training at your studio is available.

Separate ongoing support

Fractional Creative Director

Starting at $4,500/month

A part-time creative director with 20 years of apparel experience, without the full-time hire.

Once a month we set priorities together. Then I stay in the work: reviewing, directing, and pressure-testing your creative output across the areas below, and telling you honestly what is working and what is not. For founders who are the bottleneck on every creative decision and need a senior set of eyes to share the load.

Creative direction. Campaign and photoshoot direction, concept and creative review, visual standards, and feedback your team can act on.

Brand. Positioning check-ins, brand voice consistency, storytelling direction, and keeping the brand coherent as output scales.

Product + trend. Seasonal trend direction, product design review, line and assortment feedback, and a print and color point of view grounded in 20 years of apparel work.

Social + content. Content direction, channel voice, social planning review, and standards for creator and UGC content.

AI workflows. Refinement of the workflows you already run, coaching your team on where human judgment stays in charge, and flags when a new workflow is worth building.

Plus founder thought partnership throughout: evaluating ideas, preparing for launches, and being the person you call before the big decision.

The boundary, stated plainly: this is judgment and direction, not production capacity. Defined monthly hours, not unlimited Slack.

What you walk away with

What the work can include.

The goal is not another strategy deck. The goal is a useful system your team can actually use after the call ends.
