Sample Development

A swatch will show you how a fabric feels. It takes a sewn blouse to find out whether the shoulder pulls when you reach forward. You can ask us for cloth to compare or for a garment cut to your brand’s size chart.

A swatch or a sewn sample?

Choose a swatch while you’re deciding between fabrics. Once you want to check the cut on a body, ask for a garment sample.

Fabric Swatches

For material selection

Handle the swatches side by side to compare texture, weight and drape. The colors we can send depend on what’s in stock.

For bulk fabric orders, ask about width, composition and minimum yardage as well.

Custom Garment Samples

For fit and construction

We can work from a sketch, a reference piece or a technical pack. Mark the measurements, seams or trims you’d like to check at the fitting.

Include your size chart and any artwork so the team can review the details before making the sample.

Choosing fabric for a dress? Tell us whether you want a skirt that holds its shape or one that moves close to the body. We can suggest fabrics to compare.

Have an existing pattern? Include it with the intended size and describe any changes you want us to check.

At the first fitting

Wear the sample as the finished piece will be worn. Button the blouse, sit down in the skirt or try the jacket over its intended layer.

Handle the Fabric

For a slip dress, hold the cloth on the bias to see how it falls. For a linen shirt, check how the fabric looks after you crease it in your hand.

Try the Fit

Compare the sample with your size chart. On a blouse, raise the arms to check the armhole and shoulder fit. On a dress, check where the waist seam sits.

Inspect the Details

Look closely at seams, hems, label position and any print or embroidery.

Keep a record for production

Record the details you approve separately from the ones that still need work.

Mark requested changes on a photo and include a measurement when placement matters.

How to request a sample

Identify the size you want to try and the one detail the sample most needs to get right.

  1. 01

    Share Your Brief

    Send a reference photo, sketch or technical pack with your target fabric, size and intended use.

  2. 02

    Agree on the Details

    We check the available fabric, then agree on the measurements and construction details with you before making the sample.

  3. 03

    Review the Sample

    Try it against your brief. Mark where it needs a change, or approve the piece as the reference for the production run.

A garment sample typically takes 7–15 days to make. The fabric, construction and current schedule affect the date we can offer.

If you have a launch date, tell us when you need the sample in hand so we can discuss making and shipping separately.

Before you request a sample

A photo of the garment will do for a first discussion. Mark what you like, what you’d change and the size you want us to make.
Sampling usually takes 7–15 days, depending on fabric availability, construction and the production schedule. Ask about shipping time for your destination.
Describe the feel or drape you want. We’ll check which fabrics and colors are available for sampling at the time.
A photo can show a sleeve sitting too low; a measurement tells us by how much. Send both when you can, and we’ll agree on the revision before you approve the production sample.
