Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
A profession that uses animal pelts to draft, cut, sew, and tailor women's fur coats. Considers the characteristics of fur materials to provide high-quality products.
Description
Fur women's coat tailors are specialists who create fur patterns based on design drawings or blueprints, and perform cutting, sewing, and tailoring. They use fur sewing machines and hand-sewing techniques to attach linings, edging, and other fine finishing details. They also handle material selection, quality inspections, customer consultations, delivery management for custom-made products, and repair and remodeling work. Physical strength is required to handle heavy materials, and concentration is important for long hours of standing work.
Future Outlook
Demand is on a declining trend due to the expansion of mass-produced clothing markets. However, steady demand is expected in high-end made-to-order markets and repair/remodeling fields. The aging of artisans is causing successor shortages, presenting challenges that require skill inheritance and adaptation to new materials.
