            "content": "Hello,\n\n\nMy name is Thilda Isaksson, and I am currently launching my own Swedish\nwomenswear brand, \u00c9VAH.\n\n\nAlongside building \u00c9VAH, I currently work with an established Swedish\npremium footwear brand, where I have spent the past several years\ncollaborating closely with product development, design, supplier\ncommunication and production. Working alongside manufacturers has given me\na solid understanding of the product development process - from initial\nconcepts and material selection to sampling, quality control and\nproduction. Because of this, I truly value clear communication, attention\nto detail and long-term partnerships with suppliers.\n\n\nWith \u00c9VAH, my vision is to create a premium contemporary womenswear brand\nbuilt around timeless silhouettes, feminine tailoring and exceptional\ncraftsmanship. Every piece is designed to become a long-lasting wardrobe\nstaple, balancing Scandinavian minimalism with modern, refined details.\n\n\nI am currently looking for the right manufacturing partner for my first\ncapsule collection. Although the initial production quantities will be\nrelatively small, my ambition is to build \u00c9VAH into a long-term brand and\nestablish a lasting partnership with a factory that shares the same\ncommitment to quality and craftsmanship.\n\n\nThe first collection will consist of carefully designed wardrobe\nessentials, including dresses, blazers, tailored trousers and shirts.\n\n\nI would love to learn more about your company and whether we could be a\ngood fit. In particular, I would appreciate knowing:\n\n\n\n   - What is your minimum order quantity (MOQ)?\n   - Do you offer sample development?\n   - Can you assist with fabric sourcing if needed?\n   - Do you provide woven labels, care labels and packaging?\n   - What types of fabrics and garment categories do you specialize in?\n   - Do you have experience working with emerging premium fashion brands?\n   - Which certifications do you hold regarding quality, sustainability and\n   social responsibility?\n\n\nIf you believe we could be a good match, I would be delighted to share more\nabout \u00c9VAH, along with technical drawings, mood boards and the first\ngarment designs.\n\n\nThank you very much for your time and consideration. I look forward to\nhearing from you and hopefully discussing a future collaboration.\n\n\nKind regards,\n\n\nThilda Isaksson\n\nFounder, \u00c9VAH",

Your approach to creating a premium contemporary womenswear brand sounds exciting, and we appreciate your focus on quality and craftsmanship.\n\nTo better understand your needs and see if we can be the right manufacturing partner for your first capsule collection, I would need some additional information:\n\n1. **Designs:** Do you have a Tech Pack or a Physical Sample for the dresses, blazers, tailored trousers, and shirts?\n2. **Quantities:** What is the total quantity you plan to produce, and how many styles are you considering for each product category?\n3. **Desired delivery date:** What is your desired delivery date for the collection?\n4. **Target Price:** What is your maximum target production price per style?\n\nRegarding your questions:\n\n- Our minimum order quantity (MOQ) for general clothing is 200\u2013300 units per style, with a minimum of 100 units per colour.\n- We do offer sample development, and the cost depends on the specific product and complexity of the design.\n- We hold the GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certification, ensuring our commitment to environmentally and socially responsible production.\n- We can provide woven labels, care labels, and packaging as part of our services.\n- We specialize in a wide range of fabrics and garment categories, including womenswear.\n- We have experience working with emerging premium fashion brands.\n\nOnce I have the above details, I can better assess your project and guide you on the next steps.

            "content": "Hi Matilde,\n\nThank you so much for your detailed response. It sounds like you offer many\nof the services I am looking for, so I would definitely be interested in\nexploring whether we could find a way to work together.\n\nTo answer your questions:\n\n1. Designs\nThe first capsule collection currently consists of three styles: one dress,\none shirt and one blazer. The designs are ready, and I am currently in the\nprocess of finalising the tech packs and patterns. I would be happy to send\nover images of the designs in the meantime if that would be helpful for an\ninitial assessment.\n\n2. Quantities\nAs this is \u00c9VAH's first collection, I want to start with a deliberately\nsmall production run to test demand before scaling. Ideally, I am looking\nat approximately 50\u201380 units per style, with sizes mixed within that\nquantity.\n\nI completely understand that this is below your standard MOQ of 200\u2013300\nunits per style. However, would there be any possibility of accommodating a\nsmaller first production run, perhaps at a higher unit cost? My intention\nis very much to find a long-term manufacturing partner and increase\nquantities as the brand grows.\n\n3. Desired delivery date\nI am currently flexible regarding the exact delivery date, as finding the\nright manufacturing partner and achieving the right quality is more\nimportant to me than rushing the first collection. Once we understand the\nsampling and production timeline, I would be happy to agree on a realistic\ndelivery date together.\n\n4. Target price\nAs this is my first collection, I don't want to set an unrealistic target\nprice before understanding the construction, fabric and production\nrequirements of each garment. My priority is achieving a premium quality\nwhile keeping the final retail price accessible within the contemporary\npremium segment.\n\nIt would therefore be very helpful if, once you have reviewed the\ndesigns\/tech packs, you could provide an indicative production price at\ndifferent quantities \u2013 for example 50, 80 and 100 units per style \u2013 if\npossible. This would allow me to understand what quantity makes the most\nsense commercially.\n\nI currently work with an established Swedish premium footwear brand and\nhave several years of experience working closely with design, product\ndevelopment, suppliers and production. I therefore understand that accurate\ncosting requires detailed specifications, and I am happy to provide\neverything you need as the development progresses.\n\nI am looking for a manufacturing partner that I can build a long-term\nrelationship with rather than simply a factory for one production run, so I\nwould love to see if there is a way to make the first smaller collection\nwork together.\n\nPlease let me know if you would be open to this, and I can send over the\nfirst designs.\n\nBest regards,\nThilda Isaksson\nFounder, \u00c9VAH\n\nDen ons 2 sep. 2026 kl 20:17 skrev Matilde Azevedo :\n\n> Hello Thilda,\n>\n> Thank you for reaching out and sharing your vision for \u00c9VAH.
