We are looking for a premium fabric with a matte, buttery-soft hand feel while still providing medium support and compression. Ideally, the fabric would offer 4-way stretch, excellent shape recovery, breathability and squat-proof opacity.\n\nOne of our key design principles is that our leggings and other bottoms will not have a front seam.\n\nOur visual direction is feminine, minimal and Pilates-inspired, with an initial colour palette such as espresso brown, taupe, black and ivory.\n\nWe would love to learn more about working with you and would appreciate information regarding:\n\n\u2022 Your development and sampling process\n\u2022 Minimum order quantities per style and colour\n\u2022 Sample and development costs\n\u2022 Available premium polyamide\/nylon-elastane fabrics suitable for this concept\n\u2022 Custom pattern and fit development\n\u2022 Custom colours \/ fabric dyeing possibilities\n\u2022 Branding options such as heat-transfer logos, woven labels and care labels\n\u2022 Estimated production pricing\n\u2022 Sample and bulk production lead times\n\u2022 Whether you can provide fabric swatches before developing the first samples\n\nWe are not looking to simply add our logo to an existing product. Our goal is to develop PALOMA\u2019s own fit, details and fabric feel and build a long-term relationship with a manufacturer who can grow with the brand.\n\nI would be happy to send visual references and more detailed product specifications for the collection.\n\nThank you, and I look forward to hearing from you.\n\nWarm regards,\nNeea Laaksonen\nFounder, PALOMA\nFOR MOVEMENT\nInstagram: @paloma.movement",

D=\nesignsI currently h=\nave the first collection concept and detailed product direction ready, but I=\n do not yet have finalized technical Tech Packs or physical samples.For the first PALOMA collect=\nion, I am currently planning approximately 7 styles:=E2=80=A2 Signature high-waisted leggings=E2=80=A2 Flare leggin=\ngs=E2=80=A2 Long fit=\nted signature tank=E2=\n=80=A2 Long fitted layered \/ two-in-one tank=E2=80=A2 Wrap long sleeve top=E2=80=A2 Wide-leg sweatpants=E2=80=A2 Tailored track pantsThe overall direction is fem=\ninine, minimal, timeless and premium, designed to work both for movement and=\n everyday wear.For t=\nhe activewear pieces, I=E2=80=99m looking for an ultra-soft, smooth and silk=\ny hand-feel performance fabric with a matte finish, four-way stretch and goo=\nd shape retention. I do not want ribbed textures or visible vertical lines.An important design r=\nequirement for PALOMA is that the leggings and flare leggings have&nbsp;no front seam.I would also like the branding to re=\nmain very minimal. Rather than large printed logos, I=E2=80=99m interested i=\nn developing a small, discreet PALOMA metal hardware detail, for example in a=\n matte or champagne gold finish, placed subtly on the back, strap or sleeve d=\nepending on the garment.Our initial colour direction is:=E2=80=A2 Espresso brown=E2=80=A2 Black=E2=80=A2 Cream=E2=80=A2 Grey for selected lounge piecesI have also created a visual product concept \/ m=\noodboard that I can send you to communicate the direction more clearly.=\n2. Quantities=\nBefore confirming quantities,=\n could you please clarify how your MOQ of 200 units per style works?For example, if one style is=\n produced in 2=E2=80=933 colours, is the MOQ 200 units in total for that sty=\nle, with the quantity divided between colours and sizes, or is it 200 units p=\ner colour?This wil=\nl help me determine the most suitable number of styles and colours for the f=\nirst production run.3. Target PriceAs t=\nhis is our first collection, I would first love to understand your approxima=\nte production price range for these types of garments.My priority is achieving a premium fabric,=\n fit and finish while keeping the retail pricing commercially viable. Once I=\n understand your typical price range and fabric options, I can give you a mo=\nre accurate target production price for each style.4. Sampling &amp; DevelopmentBefore making a final commitment to b=\nulk production, it is very important for me to receive and review physical s=\namples of the garments.I would like to personally evaluate the fabric quality, softness, fit, s=\nizing, construction and overall finish before approving the collection for p=\nroduction.Could yo=\nu please let me know how your sampling process works, including:=\n=E2=80=A2 The approximate cost o=\nf developing samples=\n=E2=80=A2 How long it usually takes to receive the first samples=E2=80=A2 Whether fabric swatches=\n can be sent before sample development=E2=80=A2 Whether adjustments and revised samples are possib=\nle after the first fitting=E2=80=A2 How many sample\/revision rounds are typically included or rec=\nommended before bulk productionI would only like to confirm the final bulk production order onc=\ne the final samples have been reviewed and approved.5. Delivery TimelineI understand that your minimum production c=\nycle is five full calendar months. At this stage, I would like to begin the d=\nevelopment and sampling process as soon as possible.I would be very happy to send over my visu=\nal collection concept and reference images as the next step. I would also ap=\npreciate your guidance on whether your team can assist with technical develo=\npment and Tech Packs based on my designs and references, or whether you requ=\nire finalized Tech Packs before starting the development process.=\nI=E2=80=99m really excited ab=\nout the possibility of developing PALOMA with you and look forward to hearin=\ng your thoughts.War=\nm regards,NeeaPALOMAFor MovementMatilde Azeved=\no &lt;info@portugaltextile.com&gt; kirjoitti 28.9.2026 kello 19.12:=EF=BB=BFHello N=\neea,\n\nThank you for reaching out and sharing your vision for PALOMA.

If you plan to produce a style in multiple colours, the total quantity for that style must still meet the 200-unit minimum.\n\n3. **Target Price:** I understand you would like to know our approximate production price range.

            "content": "Hi Matilde,\n\nThank you so much for your detailed response. It was very helpful.\n\nWe have now refined the direction for PALOMA Chapter 01 further. Our current collection concept consists of five styles:\n\nSignature Legging \u2013 high-rise, no front seam, soft premium feel and subtle shaping\nFlare Legging \u2013 a long, flattering flare silhouette with the same premium feel\nLayered Tank \u2013 a fitted, full-length tank that covers the navel, with a subtle two-layer effect\nSeamless V Tank \u2013 a clean, feminine seamless tank with a V-neckline and second-skin feel\nWind Pant \u2013 lightweight technical wind pants with a relaxed straight\/wide-leg silhouette, clean waistband without visible drawstrings and minimal tonal branding\nOur main colours are Black and our signature PALOMA Brown, with Cream\/Beige used selectively for layering details.\n\nWe are currently preparing the Tech Packs and visual reference materials for these styles.\n\nRegarding the MOQ, could you please confirm that the 200 units per style can be divided between two colours? For example, would it be possible to produce 100 units in Black and 100 units in PALOMA Brown for one style, subject to fabric minimums?\n\nAs PALOMA is a new brand and this will be our first production, keeping the initial investment manageable is very important to us. We may therefore develop the full five-style collection but begin bulk production with only 2\u20133 of the strongest styles.\n\nRegarding target pricing, rather than setting an unrealistic maximum before the technical specifications and fabrics are finalized, we would really appreciate your guidance first.\n\nCould you please give us an indication of the typical EXW production price range for comparable premium activewear styles at your 200-unit MOQ, particularly for:\n\n\u2022 Premium leggings\n\u2022 Flare leggings\n\u2022 Fitted activewear tanks\n\u2022 Seamless tanks\n\u2022 Lightweight technical wind pants\n\nThis would help us understand which styles are financially realistic for our first production and build the collection accordingly.\n\nWe would also be very interested in receiving fabric swatches before beginning sample development.\n\nOne additional question regarding sampling: fit and quality are extremely important to us, especially for the leggings. You mentioned that one initial sample per style is developed before the bulk order and further samples are made after the bulk order is placed.\n\nWould it be possible for us to pay separately for additional revised sample rounds before committing to bulk production? We would feel much more comfortable approving the final fit and construction before placing an order of 200 units per style.\n\nOnce our Tech Packs are finalized, we can also provide our visual moodboards and reference garments if helpful.\n\nThank you again. We are very excited about PALOMA and would love to explore working with Portugal Textile on the development of the collection.\n\nWarm regards,\nNeea\nPALOMA FOR MOVEMENT\n\n\n> Matilde Azevedo  kirjoitti 28.9.2026 kello 20.17:\n> \n> Hello Neea,\n> \n> Thank you for providing more details about your vision for PALOMA and your first collection.

This timeline accounts for the necessary development and production phases, including any potential factory closures in December.\n> \n> Payment Schedule:\n> \n> 1. First Payment: The first payment is required at the start of the development process. This covers the development and sampling costs.\n> \n> 2. Development and Sampling Costs: The cost of developing samples depends on the specific product and complexity of the design. We will provide a detailed estimate once the Tech Packs are reviewed.\n> \n> 3. Revised Samples: Additional revised samples before bulk production will incur separate costs.\n> \n> 4. Bulk Production Deposit: A 50% deposit is required for bulk production once the final order is confirmed.\n> \n> 5. Remaining Balance: The remaining 50% balance is due before shipping.\n> \n> I hope this helps you plan both the launch timeline and the financial aspects of your first collection. If you have any further questions or need additional clarification, please feel free to reach out.\n> \n> Warm regards,\n> Matilde Azevedo\n> Portugal Textile",
