Insights

Better questions lead to better fabrics.

Short material notes help design and sourcing teams make clearer choices before development begins.

Briefing guide01

Four decisions that make an intimate-fabric brief more useful

Define the touch, stretch and recovery, visual finish, and the market standard the garment must meet.

Read article
Material note02

Lyocell or modal? Start with the wearer experience

Drape, moisture comfort, surface appearance and care expectations should guide the development route.

Read article
Responsible sourcing03

Buyer questions

Useful answers before you reach out.

01Can you develop from our existing swatch or garment?

Yes. A physical swatch, garment, tech pack or clear moodboard can be the starting point. Tell us what must stay the same and what you want to improve.

02What should we include to receive a useful recommendation?

Share the end use, target handfeel, composition preference, stretch or drape goal, color direction, expected volume, market and timing. If some details are unknown, start with the application and reference.

03Do you support functional and lower-impact material directions?

Our development scope includes functional knitted fabrics and certified material directions. Requirements should be confirmed against the exact construction, testing target and order brief.

04How do you keep development connected to bulk production?

Fabric R&D, printing, dyeing and finishing operate within one connected manufacturing system, helping approved color, handfeel and performance move more clearly into repeat production.
