I've received your collection images, and I'm thrilled to assist you with your first capsule collection.\n\nTo provide you with accurate information, I need a bit more detail:\n\n1. **Quantities**: You mentioned a total of 1,000 garments. Could you please specify how many styles you intend to create and the quantity per style?\n2. **Target Price**: What is your target production price per style?\n\nRegarding your questions:\n\n- Our minimum order quantity for general womenswear is 200\u2013300 units per style, with a minimum of 100 units per color.\n- The sampling process cost depends on the complexity of each design. We need to evaluate your Tech Pack to provide a proper sample quotation.\n- Our production lead time is approximately 10-14 weeks after order placement, with an additional 6-8 weeks for sampling. Please note that our total cycle is around 5 months, which ensures the high standards of Portuguese textile production.\n- We operate on an Ex-Works basis, meaning the client manages and pays for shipping and insurance. We can certainly ship to Dublin, but shipping costs would need to be arranged by you.\n\nOnce I have the additional details, I can better assess your project and guide you on the next steps.\n\nLooking forward to your response.\n\nBest regards.",
