Stars Design Group
Developing Apparel Programs from Design to Delivery - Established in 1993, as Stars Apparel International, eventually expanding and evolving into Stars Design Group, Inc. in 2000. Our company's global headquarters are located in St. Louis, Missouri with two offices in India. We have created a unique business model that allows us to develop apparel programs for brands and businesses who need the infrastructure of highly experienced personnel, a full service design staff using 2D & 3D PHOTO-real artwork, an incredible development and sourcing team, and a global network of over 67 hand-selected factories in 14 countries. These assets also allow us to work closely with well established brands, corporations and retailers which has resulted in strong, long-term relationships. RECOMMENDATION: The decision to add a vendor is a critical one especially for a premium brand with demanding customers and stakeholders. The potential vendor is not 'just' a vendor, but a partner in the development process and a conduit to excellence in the delivery of quality products, from concept inception to execution, in timely delivery and follow through. It is a relationship that is critical to success. It is a continuing journey without end: - if you are fortunate to find a true partner in the process. I have no hesitation in saying that Stars Design Group are best-in-class. No matter what the business model, they have the capability, passion and drive to bring it to life and make it happen, as they did, and continue to do, with Harley-Davidson.
