I've received the design for your nursing bikini project; it's a very thoughtful concept.\n\nBefore we go further, I need to clarify our minimums. For swimwear, our minimum order quantity is 200 units per style. A bikini set is considered two separate styles (one top, one bottom). As your project includes one top and two different bottom versions, this would be treated as three distinct styles.\n\nTo provide you with an accurate analysis for your project, I need the following details:\n\n1.  **Quantities**: Could you confirm the quantity you would like to produce for each style (top, classic bottom, high-waisted bottom), keeping our minimum of 200 units per style in mind?\n2.  **Timeline**: What is your desired delivery date for the production?\n3.  **Target Price**: What is your target production price per style, indicated separately for each of the three items?\n\nOnce I have these details, I can better assess your project.",

My priority is therefore to validate the\nproduct through prototyping before launching a larger production.\n\nRegarding the timeline, I would ideally like to receive the prototypes\nwithin the next few weeks, in order to organize a photoshoot this summer.\n\nAs for the target price, I am aiming for a premium yet accessible\npositioning. My objective would be to reach a production cost aligned with\na final retail price around \u20ac70\u201390 for the set.\n\nWould it be possible to start with the development of a prototype (top +\none bottom), as well as receiving fabric swatches in terracotta, khaki and\nocean palm?\n\nI would of course be happy to hear your recommendations.\n\nThank you again for your time and support.\n\nBest regards,\n\nMaryle\u0300ne\n\nLe jeu. 9 avr. 2026 \u00e0 16:49, Matilde Azevedo  a\n\u00e9crit :\n\n> Hello Maryl\u00e8ne,\n>\n> Thank you for contacting us and for your interest in producing your\n> swimwear collection in Portugal.
