Abstract
In general fashion design is a design fi eld where users are seldom directly involved in the design process. It is only when developing very specifi ctypes of garments like uniforms or high performance athletic wear, fashion designers will consult end users to gain knowledge about specific demands or specifications. In this article we will report from a project where we have developed and used probes as an integrated part of the design process.
