Imaginative Design for Gender Expansive Life

Commission Your Junk!

 

Commission your junk

The nature of the project is to ask yourself a kind of silly feeling question,
but we encourage you to really indulge in it.

WHat’s in Your Pants? 

It could really be anything, so sit with the query. See what comes up. And when you're ready, enjoy this survey.  

 

Step 1:

Fill Out a Commission Form

 

The Process:

  1. Feel free to complete step 1 just for fun. You will receive a copy of your responses.  

  2. When you want us to start working on your design purchase step 2 “custom part design”. We’ll send you design sketches and fabric samples. We can correspond by email, phone/video call, or in-person meet-up (with Philadelphia locals).

  3. Once you are satisfied with the design we will quote you the number of hours the project will require and the cost of materials and shipping. And you will decide what you are able to compensate us for the labor.

  4. Then we’ll make your artwork. When it’s finished we will send you pictures and an invoice for the amount you named in step 3. Once we settle up your wearable art will be sent to you.

Pricing Guidelines:

Really?! I can pay whatever I want?

Short answer: yes.

Darb Garb is not a typical online store. We are starting an artistic sexual revolution founded in a marginalized community's need to see ourselves. We are committed to a financial model that is not dependent on investors, is equitable, and sustainable. This is only possible because folks who are able to contribute more financially pay it forward. Below is the equity pricing model you can use to help you figure out a price recommendation.
No one will be turned away for lack of funds!

Equity Pricing Equation:
(hours of labor) x (your hourly rate) + (materials and shipping cost) = (cost) x 2 = (Wholesale Price) x 2 = (Retail price)

Recommendation:
If your annual income is six figures or you have access to family wealth, we hope that you will pay the retail price. If you make less than 25k annually we will be happy to make your commission for you at cost. This pricing model operates as an honor system we trust you to find the price point that feels respectful to you. We are hopeful that our transparency about pricing will create a culture of generosity and abundance.

If this model is cost-prohibitive please submit a commission form anyway and let us know which creative financial options you are interested in learning more about. We are committed to making art objects for anyone who connects with this concept.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Design Consultation

For clients who don’t yet have a specific vision of what to commission we offer consultation as part of the design process. Here is a recording of our designer working with a client. They go from having no idea what they want as a packer to a detailed and hilarious concept that has them grinning ear to ear.
