However, I\u2019ve designed the product as accurately as possible through reference images, which I will share for your evaluation.The concept is \u201ceveryday lingerie\u201d \u2014 seamless underwear that combines a sexy lingerie look with daily comfort.The key product is a seamless Brazilian panty with integrated, minimal garter-style thigh straps. The straps are not removable and should be soft, elastic, and comfortable.For the fabric, I am looking for a quality similar to Sloggi-style material \u2014 very soft, smooth, and stretchy (approx. 76% polyamide \/ 24% elastane), with a true \u201csecond skin\u201d feel and full invisibility under clothing.I am currently preparing to launch the brand, so I am especially interested in understanding:\t\u2022\tThe cost of developing a sample\t\u2022\tDevelopment timeline\t\u2022\tYour general process for prototyping new designsI would prefer to start with one sample size (M) based on your standard size chart and your recommendations.Additionally, I have a few questions:\t1.\tDo you have experience producing seamless underwear with integrated straps and cut-out designs?\t2.\tCan you achieve clean finishes such as laser cutting or bonded edges (no visible seams)?\t3.\tWhat is your MOQ for this type of product after sampling?At this stage, my main goal is to evaluate feasibility, quality, and overall fit before making any production decisions.Please let me know the next steps to proceed with a sample.Looking forward to your feedback.Best regards,Jenny Ebersold\nProduct Category: Underwear\nMOQs: Lower than 1000\/style.\nTarget Price: 5\nBrand Type: Start up\nCountry: Germany\n\nUploaded File\/Link: ymdPY2dj-IMG-3123-f46a17.jpg\n\n$$SYSTEM NOTE: The user provided a form upload link (ymdPY2dj-IMG-3123-f46a17.jpg).

For example:200 XS, 200 S, 300 M, 200 L, 100 XL.On pricing, my current benchmark is based on Chinese manufacturers, where quotes are significantly below \u20ac5 per unit. I understand that costs may differ depending on production location and quality. My priority is to achieve the most competitive pricing possible while maintaining quality standards. It would be helpful if you could indicate a realistic price range on your side.Looking forward to your feedback.Best regards,JennyOn 26.
