What was the first sample released before mass production?
It is usually the first sample that translates the product idea into patterns and workmanship. This example is not final approval; Makes subsequent size, fabric and accessory decisions visible. Specifying up front which sample you want and for what purpose makes the job easier.
Explore the sampling processSample type determines expected decision
A fit sample checks size and silhouette; a development sample checks materials and workmanship; a pre-production sample confirms the complete standard for bulk production. Expecting a sample to answer questions outside its purpose creates rework.
Factors affecting cost and time
Special fabric or accessory sourcing, new pattern development, hand crafting and repeat revisions change the sample scope. Mass production price and sample cost may not be based on the same operating assumption.
- New or existing pattern
- Original or representative material
- Special accessory preparation
- Number of revisions and scope of changes
- sample cargo
