Okay, here's my question. Let's say you have two pools - a pool of suits, and a pool of fabrics. The goal is to sell custom-made suits, so the customer can go in, select a suit style and then select the fabric he wants. Different fabrics have different prices, so a Super 120's wool may cost $70 per square meter, while a Super 180's can cost $400 per square meter. And of course, the customer would want to see a photo, or multiple photos of the fabric before making a selection.
But not all garments would have the same fabric selection. For instance, a dress for women would use fabrics made from silk.
It almost seems to me that the suit and the fabric should be two separate products, related somehow. I don't know if somehow this should be a configurable product (can you do photos in a configurable product) or a related product. Or a grouped product. Can anyone give me some feedback on what direction I should take? Keep in mind, I'm new to Magento... as in... just got it installed today. Lol. I'm using the Bencher theme, if that matters at all.
