The collection will include baby rompers and babygrows, girls\u2019\ndresses, boys\u2019 smart sets, knitwear and coordinated sibling pieces.\n\nThe style will be classic but fashionable rather than overly traditional \u2014\nbeautiful collars, piping, embroidery, fine knits, subtle florals and\ntartans, and sophisticated colours. Because we are designing specifically\nwith Orthodox Jewish families in mind, we would also be adapting details\nsuch as girls\u2019 sleeve and dress lengths while keeping the overall look very\nelegant.\n\nFor our first collection, we would ideally like to begin with relatively\nsmall quantities, prove the collection, and then scale considerably as the\nbrand grows.\n\nCould you please let me know:\n\n\u2022 Your approximate MOQ per style and colour\n\u2022 How your design development and sampling process works\n\u2022 Whether you can work from our sketches, reference images and design\ndirection before we have completed tech packs\n\u2022 Whether you source fabrics, trims, buttons, embroidery and other detailing\n\u2022 Whether you can develop both completely original pieces and modifications\nof existing patterns\n\u2022 Your approximate sampling costs and production lead times\n\u2022 Whether you provide Lilvelle woven labels, hangtags and fully branded\npackaging\n\u2022 Whether finished Lilvelle stock can be stored with you or a partner\nfacility\n\u2022 Whether you offer direct-to-consumer fulfilment, where individual orders\nfrom lilvelle.com can be picked, packed in Lilvelle packaging and shipped\ndirectly to customers internationally\n\u2022 Your typical production price range for premium baby and children\u2019s\ngarments\n\nIf individual fulfilment is not something you currently offer, that is not\nnecessarily a dealbreaker, as we can arrange a separate fulfilment partner.\nOur priority is finding the right manufacturing partner and achieving the\nquality and finish we want for Lilvelle.\n\nKind regards,\n\nAmelia\nFounder, Lilvelle\nwww.lilvelle.com\n\n$$SYSTEM NOTE: The user provided general web links (www.lilvelle.com).

Your vision for a refined European-style children's clothing collection sounds wonderful, and I'm glad to hear that you're considering Portugal Textile as a potential manufacturing partner.\n\nTo provide you with accurate information and guidance, I need to gather some specific details about your project:\n\n1. **Product Category**: Could you please specify the exact types of products you want to start with? For example, baby rompers, girls' dresses, etc.\n\n2. **Quantities**: What is the total quantity you are considering per style and per colour? Our minimum order quantities for kidswear are typically 250 units per style and per colour. If you require more than 6 sizes, the minimum is 50 units per size.\n\n3. **Tech Pack or Physical Sample**: Do you have a Tech Pack or a Physical Sample for the products you wish to develop? If not, we can discuss working from sketches and reference images.\n\n4. **Target Price**: What is your maximum target production price per style? This will help us evaluate the feasibility of your project.\n\nRegarding your other questions:\n\n- We do not provide design services or create Tech Packs, but we can work from your sketches and reference images if you don't have a completed Tech Pack yet.\n- We can source fabrics, trims, buttons, embroidery, and other detailing as part of the development process.\n- We do not offer direct-to-consumer fulfilment or storage services, but we can discuss potential solutions.\n- Our production lead times are approximately 10\u201314 weeks after order placement, with sampling taking an additional 6\u20138 weeks.\n\nPlease let me know the above details so we can proceed with evaluating your project. Once we have this information, we can discuss the next steps in more detail.\n\nLooking forward to your response.\n\nBest regards,\n\nMatilde Azevedo",

            "content": "Hi Matilde,\n\nHi,\n\nThank you for the detailed reply \u2014 that\u2019s very helpful.\n\nFor the initial Lilvelle collection, we are looking to begin with a small,\ncarefully curated range rather than a very large number of styles.\n\nThe first collection would likely include:\n\n\u2022 Baby boy and girl rompers\/babygrows\n\u2022 Girls\u2019 dresses\n\u2022 Boys\u2019 smart rompers or coordinated sets\n\u2022 Cardigans and fine knitwear\n\u2022 A small number of coordinating sibling pieces\n\nWe are still finalising the exact collection, but we would likely begin\nwith approximately 8\u201312 core styles.\n\nRegarding quantities, as this will be our first production run, 250 units\nper style and per colour would be quite a large commitment initially. We\nwould ideally like to start closer to approximately 75\u2013150 units per\nstyle\/colour, depending on the garment, with the intention of placing\nlarger repeat orders once we establish which styles perform best.\n\nWould there be any flexibility on the 250-unit MOQ for a first collection,\nparticularly if we are ordering several different styles together or using\nthe same fabrics across multiple coordinated pieces?\n\nFor sizing, we would most likely begin with around 5\u20136 sizes per garment.\n\nWe do not yet have completed Tech Packs. We are currently developing the\nfirst collection through sketches, detailed design descriptions and\nreference images, so it is very helpful to know that you can work from\nthese.\n\nRegarding target pricing, we are aiming to position Lilvelle as an\naccessible premium children\u2019s brand, so maintaining strong margins while\nachieving a genuinely high-quality finish is important to us.\n\nOur target production costs will therefore depend on the individual\ngarment, fabric and level of detailing. As a general guide, for the core\ncollection we would ideally aim for approximately:\n\n\u2022 Simple baby pieces: \u20ac7\n\u2022 More detailed baby rompers\/babygrows: \u20ac9\n\u2022 Girls\u2019 dresses: approximately \u20ac11\n\u2022 Boys\u2019 smart rompers\/sets: approximately \u20ac11\n\u2022 Knitwear\/cardigans: approximately \u20ac12\n\nWe understand that particularly intricate designs, premium fabrics or more\ncomplex construction may fall above these ranges, and we would be happy to\nevaluate those pieces individually.\n\nWould you be able to let me know whether these ranges are realistic for\nyour production?\n\nIf there is some flexibility on the MOQ and the pricing is workable, I\nwould be very happy to send you our initial collection direction and some\nof the first design references so that we can begin discussing specific\npieces.\n\nKind regards,\n\nAmelia\n\nOn Tue, Sep 1, 2026 at 10:48\u202fAM Matilde Azevedo \nwrote:\n\n> Hello Amelia,\n>\n> Thank you for reaching out and sharing details about Lilvelle.
