            "content": "Hi Portugal Textile team,\n\nMy name is Alexis and I\u2019m the founder of MIKRI, a new UK-based premium sleepwear and loungewear brand specialising in petite proportions.\n\nI came across Portugal Textile while researching Portuguese manufacturers and was particularly interested in your custom pyjama manufacturing and product-development capabilities.\n\nOur first product will be a premium long-sleeve button-front pyjama set with a classic, feminine silhouette and piping detailing.\n\nA key part of the MIKRI concept is developing the garment specifically for petite women rather than simply shortening a standard pattern. We therefore want to consider the full proportions of the garment, including rise, inseam, torso and sleeve length, shoulder positioning and overall balance.\n\nFor fabric, we\u2019re currently exploring modal, cotton-modal and lyocell\/TENCEL\u2122 blends. Our priority is an exceptionally soft, breathable fabric with a fluid, premium drape, although we would welcome your recommendations.\n\nCould you please let me know your:\n\n  *   MOQ per style and colour\n  *   Sample and pattern-development costs\n  *   Approximate unit pricing at different quantities\n  *   Ability to develop a custom petite block and grading\n  *   Fabric sourcing and swatch options\n  *   Sampling and bulk-production lead times\n  *   Custom piping and embroidery capabilities\n  *   Woven labels\/branding and packaging options\n\nI\u2019d also be interested to know what measurements or information you would require from us to begin developing the first fit sample.\n\nLooking forward to hearing from you.\n\nBest wishes,\nAlexis\nFounder | MIKRI",

            "content": "Hello Alexis,\n\nThank you for reaching out and introducing MIKRI. Your concept for a premium sleepwear brand focused on petite proportions sounds exciting.\n\nTo provide you with accurate information and proceed with your project, I need to gather some specific details:\n\n1. **Tech Pack or Physical Sample:** Do you have a Tech Pack or a Physical Sample for the pyjama set you wish to develop?\n\n2. **Quantities:** What is the total quantity you plan to produce, and how many styles and colours are you considering?\n\n3. **Desired Delivery Date:** What is your desired delivery date for the first production run?\n\n4. **Target Price:** What is your maximum target production price per pyjama set?\n\nRegarding your questions:\n\n- **MOQ:** For sleepwear, our minimum order quantity is 200 units per style.\n- **Sample and Pattern Development Costs:** The cost of samples and pattern development depends on the specific design and complexity. We can provide a detailed quote once we review your Tech Pack or Physical Sample.\n- **Lead Times:** Sampling typically takes 6\u20138 weeks, and production takes 10\u201314 weeks after order placement.\n- **Custom Piping and Embroidery:** We offer custom piping and embroidery, with initial setup costs for these services.\n- **Fabric Sourcing:** We can assist with fabric sourcing, focusing on your preferences for modal, cotton-modal, and lyocell\/TENCEL\u2122 blends.\n\nPlease provide the requested details so we can further assist you with your project.\n\nLooking forward to your response.\n\nBest regards,\n\nMatilde Azevedo",

            "content": "Hi Matilde,\n\n\nThank you so much for getting back to me and for the information.\n\n\nMIKRI is currently in the initial product development stage, so I don\u2019t yet have a completed tech pack or physical sample. I do, however, have a clear direction for the first collection and visual references for the fit, silhouette and detailing I\u2019d like to develop. I\u2019d be happy to share these with you as a starting point.\n\n\nFor the initial launch, I\u2019m currently considering one core pyjama style in 2 colours, with the possibility of adding further styles once we\u2019ve developed and approved the first product.\n\n\nI\u2019d like to begin with your MOQ of 200 units per style, subject to sampling and final costing.\n\n\nFor fabric, I\u2019m particularly interested in soft, premium fabrics such as modal, cotton-modal or TENCEL\u2122\/lyocell blends, although I\u2019m very open to your recommendations based on the hand-feel, drape and finish I\u2019m looking to achieve.\n\n\nIn terms of timing, I\u2019m currently prioritising getting the product and fit right rather than working towards a fixed launch date.\n\n\nRegarding target price, as this is my first production run, I\u2019d really appreciate an indication of your typical price range for a premium pyjama set at approximately 200 units before setting a firm maximum. This would help me understand what is realistic based on the fabric and finishing options available.\n\n\nWould you also be able to advise whether you can assist with pattern and tech pack development from reference images and measurements, or whether I would need to provide a completed tech pack before beginning the sampling process?\n\n\nThank you again, I\u2019d love to explore developing the first MIKRI pieces with you.\n\n\nBest regards,\n\nAlexis\n\nFounder, MIKRI",

            "content": "Hello Alexis,\n\nThank you for providing more details about your project with MIKRI. It's great to hear about your clear vision for the collection.\n\nSince you don't have a completed Tech Pack or Physical Sample yet, we can start by reviewing your visual references and measurements to understand your design direction. However, please note that we do not offer Tech Pack development services. You would need to provide a completed Tech Pack before we can begin the sampling process.\n\nRegarding your interest in premium fabrics like modal, cotton-modal, or TENCEL\u2122\/lyocell blends, we can certainly assist with sourcing these materials and provide recommendations based on the qualities you're looking for.\n\nFor the Target Price, we need a specific maximum target production price per pyjama set to evaluate the project's viability. This helps us ensure that the project aligns with your budget and our production capabilities.\n\nAs for pattern development, we can assist with creating a custom petite block and grading based on your specifications, but this would require a completed Tech Pack to proceed.\n\nPlease let me know if you can provide a target price or if you have any further questions. Once we have all the necessary details, we can move forward with your project.\n\nLooking forward to your response.\n\nBest regards,\n\nMatilde Azevedo",

I can send over my visual references and initial design direction now if that would be helpful before I commission the Tech Pack.\n\nCould you also let me know whether the 200-unit MOQ can be split across two colourways of the same style, for example 100 units per colour?\n\nOnce I have that information, I'll move forward with preparing the Tech Pack.\n\nBest regards,\nAlexis\nFounder, MIKRI",
