Frequently Asked Questions
Is swimwear cut differently from RTW?
Yes. Swimwear uses four-way stretch fabrics, fully overlocked seams, bar-tacked stress points, and a different pattern math (negative ease, fit-on-body). We have dedicated swim patterns and sampling protocols.
What is the minimum?
Five units per style with the design fee paid up front. Each colorway is a separate cut so each adds to the unit count.
How are cups handled?
Standard molded foam or pad-pocket. Removable pads available. For underwire we use bridal construction. Custom cup molds carry a 4-week lead time.
Can I do my own print?
Yes. We source sublimation through European mills. Submit print files at 300dpi at finished-garment scale. Sublimation MOQ on print runs is typically 50 meters.
How long is the timeline?
Twelve to sixteen weeks for a swim capsule, including print sourcing, sampling, and production. Rush is possible if print is in-stock.
What's the typical pricing?
From $85 per unit at the production-only floor. Most swim styles in Italian power-mesh land $120–$220 per unit at premium grade. Add design fee ($2,500/style) for the five-piece minimum.
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.
