Our focus is on premium, minimal activewear with\nhigh-quality construction and a clean, elevated feel.\n\nWhere possible, I would like to use natural or lower-synthetic fabric\ncompositions and minimize polyester, while still maintaining the stretch,\ncomfort, durability, and performance required for activewear.\n\nFor our first collection, we are considering pieces such as:\n\u2022 Leggings\n\u2022 Flared leggings\n\u2022 Sports bras \/ fitted tops\n\u2022 Shorts\n\u2022 Jackets and other layering pieces\n\nAs this will be our first production run, I would appreciate some\ninformation regarding:\n\n\u2022 Minimum order quantities per style and colour\n\u2022 Sampling and prototype costs\n\u2022 Fabric options and available compositions\n\u2022 Custom fabric sourcing\n\u2022 Custom labels, logos and packaging\n\u2022 Sample and bulk production lead times\n\u2022 Estimated pricing for smaller initial quantities\n\u2022 Whether you assist with product development and tech packs\n\nWe are looking to start with a relatively small first order and grow\nproduction as the brand develops. I would be happy to send reference images\nand further details about the direction of the collection.\n\nPlease let me know the best next step to discuss the project.\n\nKind regards,\nHessa\nSVN",

Designs: I am currently developing the designs for the first SVN\n   collection. I do not have completed tech packs yet, but I can provide\n   reference images, sketches, and detailed specifications for the pieces I\n   would like to develop. I would also be interested to know if your team can\n   assist with tech pack development.\n   2. Quantities: As this will be SVN\u2019s first collection, I am looking to\n   start with your minimum quantities. You mentioned an MOQ of 200 units per\n   style \u2014 could you please confirm whether these 200 units can be divided\n   between multiple colours and sizes?\n   3. Desired Delivery Date: Ideally, I would like to launch the first\n   collection as soon as possible following sampling and approval. Based on\n   the lead times you provided, I am happy to discuss a realistic production\n   and delivery timeline with your team.\n   4. Target Price: My priority is achieving a premium-quality product\n   while keeping the production cost commercially viable for a new brand.\n   Rather than setting a maximum price before reviewing the available fabrics\n   and construction options, I would appreciate it if you could provide an\n   estimated price range per unit for an initial order of 200 units per style.\n\nFor the fabrics, I am particularly interested in premium, soft, breathable\nand performance-focused materials with minimal polyester content, while\nstill providing the stretch and durability required for activewear.\n\nCould you also please provide information regarding your sample pricing,\navailable fabric compositions, and whether custom SVN branding, labels and\npackaging can be developed through your team?\n\nI look forward to hearing from you and hopefully developing the first SVN\ncollection together.\n\nBest regards,\nHessa\nFounder, SVN\n\n\nOn Mon, 7 Sep 2026 at 1:00\u202fPM Matilde Azevedo \nwrote:\n\n> Hello Hessa,\n>\n> Thank you for reaching out and providing details about your new brand,\n> SVN.
