Abstract: A method for providing one or more garments designed by a retail store patron to customers within the store are described herein. In an embodiment, a garment design program may be accessed using an electronic device provided for use in the store. The garment design program may then receive design specifications from a customer including for example, garment size, material, hardware, embellishment, and other customizable features. When a customer instructs the design program that she is satisfied that her garment includes all desired design specifications, the garment design program publishes the design specifications to a digital catalogue for viewing and optional purchase by other store customers. It then sends the design specifications to a manufacturer that manufactures the garment according to the design specification and provides the garments to a customer in the retail location on the same day that the design specifications are received from the customer.
