Frequently asked questions.
The honest answers. If yours isn't here, the form below reaches the founder.
I'm a first-time founder, will you take me on?
Yes. First-time founders are our sweet spot. The five-unit minimum with design fee exists specifically so you can launch a capsule without committing to a 500-piece offshore MOQ.
What is the minimum order?
Five units per style, with the design fee paid up front. Below five we treat it as bespoke and price accordingly.
How much does a capsule launch cost?
Typical three-style capsule at fifty total units lands between twenty-five thousand and eighty thousand dollars all-in, including design, sampling, production, and basic packaging. Custom packaging adds $1,000 minimum.
How long does it take?
Twelve to twenty weeks from sketch to shelf for a standard capsule. Sample sign-off is the longest phase; production is typically four to six weeks once the sample is approved.
Do I keep the patterns?
Yes. Full IP transfer to you after final payment. The patterns, tech pack, and grading are yours.
Can you handle fulfillment?
Yes. Pick, pack, and ship out of our Paris facility. Six to twenty-two dollars per package depending on destination and packaging.
How quickly do you actually reply?
Within 48 business hours. Median response time is 18 hours. We respond from the founder's inbox at [email protected]. If you do not see a reply in 48 hours, check spam.
Do I have to talk to anyone before I get a price?
No. The first interaction is a written quote in your inbox. We do not require a discovery call before pricing. Some clients prefer to talk after the quote lands; that is fine but optional.
Who owns the patterns and tech pack?
You do. Full intellectual property transfer to you after final payment. The pattern files, tech pack, grading, and BOM are yours. We retain an internal archive copy for reorders only.
What if I cancel before production?
Design fee paid before sampling begins is non-refundable once design work has started. Production deposit is refundable up until cutting begins. After cutting, the materials cost is locked in. We tell you clearly at each stage.
Can I see the fabric before sample?
Yes. Fabric swatches ship to you for sign-off before sampling begins. For commissions with custom fabric sourcing, lead time is 4 to 8 weeks for swatches.
