Growing up, being asked what we wanted to be was always a constant question. And, more times than not, we dreamed of becoming a fashion designer. Sadly, the thought of sewing didn’t cross our minds and with that knowledge—we opted for a change in careers. But, we still haven’t lost our flair for wanting to make nips and tucks to the pieces we buy off the rack. More and more companies are letting you become your own designer, even letting you choose style, fit, fabric and color. Here are three fashion brands that does just that. They let you be your own designer. Carry on, without getting too carried away, or if you really want to, the design floor is yours—and you won’t have to sew a thing.

It’s quick, easy and tailored perfectly to whatever style makes you…well, you.
