You can \nsee our current collection and aesthetic at:\n\n\n\nwww.hazelandclay.com \n\n\n\nI am currently looking for a new long-term manufacturing partner in Portugal \nand am comparing several Portuguese manufacturers.\n\n\n\nOur collections focus on feminine, minimalist and romantic dresses with a \ncottagecore \/ prairie aesthetic. We mainly work with woven natural fabrics \nand details such as smocking, gathers, ruffles and elasticated sections.\n\n\n\nFor our fabrics, I am particularly looking for good-quality, substantial \nmaterials, preferably:\n\n\n\n\u2022\u2060  \u2060100% cotton or cotton\/linen blends\n\n\u2022\u2060  \u2060Around 150\u2013180 GSM or higher\n\n\u2022\u2060  \u2060Vintage floral prints, preferably in earthy and muted colours\n\n\u2022\u2060  \u2060Gingham and other yarn-dyed checks\n\n\u2022\u2060  \u2060Plain fabrics in natural and earthy colours (muslin cotton)\n\n\u2022\u2060  \u2060OEKO-TEX and\/or GOTS certified options where possible\n\n\n\nI already have my own graded CAD patterns, measurement specifications and \ntechnical information, so I can provide everything needed for production. I \nam particularly interested in finding a manufacturer with experience \nproducing smocked women\u2019s dresses and working accurately from existing \npatterns.\n\n\n\nOur current MOQ is approximately 30\u201340 pieces per style\/colour. As a small \nbut growing brand, I am looking for a manufacturer who is comfortable with \nsmall production runs and potentially growing together with the brand.\n\n\n\nCould you please let me know:\n\n\n\n\u20071.\u2060 \u2060Do you manufacture women\u2019s woven dresses, particularly cotton dresses?\n\n\u20072.\u2060 \u2060Do you have experience with smocking and similar details?\n\n\u20073.\u2060 \u2060Can you work directly from existing graded CAD patterns?\n\n\u20074.\u2060 \u2060Can you produce orders of approximately 30\u201340 pieces per style\/colour?\n\n\u20075.\u2060 \u2060Do you source fabrics, or can I also supply my own fabrics?\n\n\u20076.\u2060 \u2060What 100% cotton and cotton\/linen fabrics do you currently offer, \nparticularly 150\u2013180+ GSM?\n\n\u20077.\u2060 \u2060Do you have floral prints, yarn-dyed checks and plain fabrics in \nearthy colours?\n\n\u20078.\u2060 \u2060Can you provide GOTS and\/or OEKO-TEX certified fabrics?\n\n\u20079.\u2060 \u2060What are your sample costs and sample lead times?\n\n10.\u2060 \u2060What is your usual production lead time after sample approval?\n\n11.\u2060 \u2060What measurement tolerance do you work with for finished garments?\n\n12.\u2060 \u2060Could you send me photos of similar woven cotton dresses you have \nproduced?\n\n\n\nIf you have a fabric catalogue or swatches, I would also be very interested \nin seeing them.\n\n\n\nI can send photos of my existing designs, CAD patterns and technical \nspecifications once I know that your capabilities are a good match.\n\n\n\nI am currently comparing several manufacturers in Portugal, but my goal is \nto establish a reliable long-term partnership with one manufacturer where \nquality, communication and consistency are a priority.\n\n\n\nThank you, and I look forward to hearing from you.\n\n\n\nKind regards,\n\n\n\nEline Benard\n\nFounder, Hazel & Clay\n\nThe Netherlands\n\nwww.hazelandclay.com\n\n$$SYSTEM NOTE: The user provided general web links (www.hazelandclay.com, www.hazelandclay.com).

            "content": "Hello Eline,\n\nThank you for reaching out and providing details about Hazel & Clay. Your brand's aesthetic and focus on feminine, minimalist dresses sound wonderful.\n\nTo assist you further, I need to clarify a few points:\n\n1. **Product Category**: You mentioned women's woven dresses, particularly with smocking details. Could you confirm if this is the primary category you wish to develop with us?\n\n2. **Quantities**: Our minimum order quantity for general clothing, including dresses, is 200\u2013300 units per style, with a minimum of 100 units per color. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate orders of 30\u201340 pieces per style\/color. Would you be able to meet our minimums for production?\n\n3. **Tech Packs\/Samples**: You mentioned having CAD patterns and technical specifications. Do you have a Tech Pack or a Physical Sample that you can send us for review?\n\n4. **Target Price**: Could you please provide your target production price per style?\n\nOnce I have these details, I can better assess your project and guide you on the next steps. Please note that we do not sell raw fabric rolls separately, but we can work with your supplied fabrics if needed.\n\nLooking forward to your response.\n\nBest regards.",
