Cut and sew

Start your own clothing brand, from 50 pieces

You have the designs and the name. We hold the fabric, have it printed with your artwork, and have the garments cut and sewn at partner workshops — so you can launch without a factory of your own.

Most brands start smaller than people expect. Fifty pieces per style is enough to test a shape, photograph it and sell it before you commit to a bigger run.

These are suggestions, not a menu. We hold 63 qualities in stock and we source what we do not hold — if you already know the fabric you want, name it on the form.

Not on this page? Ask anyway.

We are not limited to the garment types listed here, and we are not limited to the 63 fabrics we hold in stock. If you want a cloth we do not carry, we source it. If you want a make we have not listed, describe it.

Tell us the fabric, the print and the construction you have in mind. If it can be printed and sewn, we will tell you how and what it costs — and if it cannot, we will tell you that too.

How it works

  1. 1

    Tell us, or show us

    A photo, a sketch, a tech pack, or a garment you already own. Send your print file if you have one — we can also work from a pattern you supply.

  2. 2

    We quote

    We come back with a price for the whole run: fabric, printing, cutting, sewing and packing.

  3. 3

    We sew a sample

    Before the main run you get a production sample to approve. Changes happen at this stage, not after.

  4. 4

    The run starts

    Once you approve the sample, production begins. Every metre is inspected before it is cut, and the finished garments are boxed and shipped.

From your file to the boxed order

  1. 1

    Your file

    We check the artwork — repeat, scale, resolution, and how the pattern will sit on the cut pieces.

  2. 2

    Strike-off

    Optional. A short test print so you see the colour on the actual cloth before the full run.

  3. 3

    Printing

    At the partner mill that suits the fibre: reactive on cotton, sublimation on polyester, acid on silk.

  4. 4

    Fabric inspection

    Every metre is checked before anything is cut. Faults are caught here, not after sewing.

  5. 5

    Cutting

    The pattern is laid and cut at the partner workshop, with the print placement planned on each piece.

  6. 6

    Sewing

    Assembled and finished, including your own labels.

  7. 7

    Final check

    Finished garments are checked against the sample you approved.

  8. 8

    Packing and dispatch

    Folded or on hangers, boxed and handed to the courier.
