Sabine Reynaud Jan 1, 2014:
garment specification sheet appears to be an industry term for "Nähanleitungen". http://www.textileschool.com/articles/218/product-design

I Would Say technological development of an outfit.
It was my first job in life (I was 18 then); I started as an in-house interpreter in a mass-production apparel company. The company was working for West European German speaking companies. I was watching and interpreting the communication while the technologists in the design - and cutting department (Model- and Schneiderabteilung) were working with the stencils and templates; they used to combine parts/pieces of different sizes in order to optimize expenditures.
Johanna Timm, PhD Dec 30, 2013:
with Sabine Schnittechnik= pattern making, i.e. "drafts/designs patterns". This includes pattern grading (increasing/decreasing for different sizes)
philgoddard Dec 30, 2013:
Isn't it just a roundabout way of saying "cuts"?
Sabine Reynaud Dec 30, 2013:
something like this: The pattern maker/design assistant compiles the sewing instructions and drafts the pattern of the outfit/garment.

Sabine Reynaud Dec 30, 2013:
@asker Yes, this sounds very much like the assistant creates the pattern for the garment. You have the designer, who creates the look. Then this has to be converted into a (cut) pattern. The sewing instructions and the pattern are then given to who ever produces the garment. Hopefully not a shop in Bangladesh that is unsafe for it's workers.

drafts the pattern of the garment

see discussion. This process is most likely done with the help of CAD software today.

realisation of tailored garments

The assistant prepares sewing instructions and enables the realisation (of the pattern/design) as tailored garments.

Not sure how you would translate "Bekleidungsassistent"

converts garments into patterns

“The pattern maker/design assistant devises sewing instructions and converts garments into patterns.”

See example below:

“According to Career Planner, duties of a patternmaker include drawing fabric layouts, computing the dimensions of patterns, creating a paper pattern of the design, discussing the pattern designs with designers, converting the models of garments into patterns and using charts, computers and drafting devices."

agree Rosa Paredes : I understand it this way also. The pattern is created based on an existing piece of clothing.

Reference:

The patternmaker plays a pivotal role in the success of producing quality apparel by determining many aspects of how the design is translated into garments. If the patternmaker is allowed access to key players in those processes, the success rate of meeting product expectations and specifications with only minor production issues will be vastly improved.
