pattern and cutting preparation
Approved measurements and pattern decisions are transferred to the cutting plan, where manufacturability is verified.
We turn your shirt and pyjama ideas into products ready for production.
We assess your collection objectives alongside fit, fabric, product details and target price, then develop a product standard ready for sampling and bulk production.
You can start with a reference product, a drawing, or just an idea.

Real product development environment
We make decisions visible on the sample.
These frames selected from our company shots show how the product idea is transferred to production details.
Applying the product details
Details that define the garment—such as buttons, stitching, collar and cuffs—are assessed on the sample.
sample workmanship
Appearance and workmanship decisions are confirmed on the physical garment before bulk production begins.

before you start
Clear answers regarding product development.
01Can we start with just one product idea?
Yes. The product type, target customer, intended use, approximate quantity and delivery requirements are enough to begin an initial assessment.
02Can we share drawings or reference products?
Yes. A drawing, size chart, technical information or reference product helps us understand the intended appearance and product details more quickly.
03Do you provide support in fabric selection?
We select fabric by assessing intended use, season, appearance, care requirements, workmanship and target price together.
04How to clarify the pattern and measurements?
We review the supplied measurements or reference product, assess the intended silhouette on the sample and record the approved measurements.
05Can changes be made on the sample?
Yes. We assess changes to measurements, fit, fabric, trims and appearance, then record approved decisions for bulk production.
06Which custom brand details can be applied?
Labelling, buttons, embroidery, collar, cuff, measurement and packaging details can be developed for your brand, subject to the product brief and manufacturing feasibility.
07When is product development completed?
Once the pattern, fabric, trims, measurements and appearance are approved, the garment has an agreed standard that can be maintained in bulk production.
