Share the brief
Send the design, measurements, fabric preferences, artwork and target quantities. A physical sample can also guide fit and construction.
HL TAILOR / BRAND SERVICES
Clothing sample development.
Your design sketch, tech pack or physical sample is the starting point. We work through the pattern, material and construction details with you, with sampling generally taking about one week.
Review the construction
Confirm the pattern direction, seams, trims and any print, embroidery or other techniques before proceeding with the sample.
Check the sample
Review the fit and finish, then record the changes needed for the next stage. Complex designs and revisions can affect the schedule.
ORDERING GUIDE
Indicative production lead times
These are approximate production timings, not guaranteed delivery dates. Style complexity and project requirements can change the schedule. Sampling, production and shipping are separate; we confirm the final timeline for your order.
Minimum order
One roll of fabric per style, per colour.
The number of garments is calculated from the usable fabric in the roll and the consumption of the chosen style. There is no fixed piece minimum: fabric width, roll length, sizes and cutting layout affect the yield. We confirm the quantity for your project.

Before we begin
How many pieces do I need to order?

Can you work from my tech pack or sample?
Yes. Share your design sketches, tech pack or physical sample. Include the size requirements, preferred fabric, colours and techniques so we can review the sample and production plan.
Are these lead times fixed?
These are approximate production timings, not guaranteed delivery dates. Style complexity and project requirements can change the schedule. Sampling, production and shipping are separate; we confirm the final timeline for your order.
