Fabric development
Composition, GSM, hand feel and surface finish are developed from your targets or reference fabric.
Manufacturing program
Sampling & Development
Turn a tech pack, sketch or reference garment into a physical sample you can hold — fabric, fit, decoration and labels validated before any bulk commitment.
Pattern & fit engineering
Measurements are built from your chart or a reference garment — oversized, boxy, drop-shoulder or cropped, graded to your size range.
Decoration & branding samples
Print, embroidery, labels and packaging are sampled on the actual fabric so colours and placement are locked.
Approval checkpoint
You approve the physical sample. Bulk production begins only after approval.
What to expect

Sampling & Development FAQ
Can you work from a reference garment?
Yes — a reference garment can be reverse-engineered into a specification while keeping your design confidential.
What does a sample include?
The garment in your target fabric and construction, with decoration, labels and packaging sampled where specified.
Can I request multiple colourways?
Yes. Colourways can be planned with the sample; fabric dyeing may require a minimum quantity.
What if the sample needs changes?
Adjustments are reviewed and re-sampled until the fit, fabric and finish meet your approval.
