Frequently Asked Questions About Working With Kerry Pietrobon Consulting

What if I’m not sure which service is right for me?

That’s what the free Discovery Call is for. We’ll talk through where you’re at, what’s feeling stuck, and what you’re working toward. I’ll then recommend the most useful next step - practical, considered, and pressure-free.

Do I need to be an established fashion brand to work with you?

No. I work with early-stage fashion founders as well as established brands navigating growth, change or a reset. Whether you’re launching, scaling or refining, we’ll meet you where you’re at.

What do clients usually come to you for?

Clients typically come to me for clarity, confidence and practical direction. This often includes:

• Business strategy and decision-making support

• Fit, sizing and product development issues

• Shopify and eCommerce optimisation

• Production planning, systems and workflows

• Brand and customer experience refinement

Most projects span more than one area, and we work through them holistically.

Can I customise a consulting package?

Yes. All consulting is tailored. Support can be structured around mentoring, fashion strategy, Shopify and eCommerce, fit and sizing, product development, or brand and customer experience, aligned to your goals, timeline and budget.

Can you help with extended or inclusive sizing?

Yes. Inclusive sizing and fit are core areas of expertise. I support brands with base-size selection, fit refinement, grading strategy, sampling processes and size-chart clarity, ensuring extended sizing is designed intentionally, not simply graded or scaled up.

Can you review sizing, fit or tech packs before production?

Absolutely. I review measurements, size charts, grading logic, fit notes and tech packs to identify risks early, helping you avoid costly production issues and improve fit consistency before manufacturing.

I’ve had ongoing fit issues - can they be fixed?

In most cases, yes. Fit issues usually stem from pattern, grading, fabric behaviour, specs or sampling processes. We’ll identify what’s actually causing the problem and create a clear, practical path forward.

Do you only work with fashion brands?

Fashion is my core focus, and most clients are fashion brands or retailers. I also work with product-based businesses in aligned industries where fit, production or eCommerce expertise is relevant.

Do I need to be based in Melbourne or Australia?

No. I’m based in Melbourne and work with clients across Australia and internationally via online sessions. In-person consulting is available for Melbourne-based clients by arrangement.

What happens after the Discovery Call?

If we’re a good fit, I’ll outline a recommended next step, whether that’s a clarity session, ongoing consulting, a specific project or a custom package. You’ll leave with direction, even if we don’t move forward together.
