            "content": "Hello,\n\nMy name is Jodie Guilliams and I am currently developing a new Belgian childrenswear brand, Studio A Kids.\n\nFor our first small collection, I am looking for a manufacturing partner who can support us with product development, sampling, customisation and production.\n\nStudio A Kids is designed for children from approximately 6 months to 6 years and has a unisex, colourful and premium aesthetic, with a strong focus on fit, comfort, quality and playful design details.\n\nFor Collection 01, we are currently looking to develop four core styles:\n\n  *   Boxy \/ oversized T-shirt\n  *   Relaxed \/ boxy long-sleeve T-shirt\n  *   Oversized half-zip sweatshirt\n  *   Wide \/ baggy denim trouser\n\nBefore developing new patterns, I would first like to review any existing childrenswear base styles you may already offer that could be suitable for this collection and customised with Studio A Kids colours, artwork, embroidery, patches, labels and finishing.\n\nIf suitable existing styles are not available for certain garments, I am open to custom pattern development where necessary.\n\nI have already prepared clear reference images and detailed Product Development Briefs covering the intended fit, fabric direction, construction preferences and first sample requirements.\n\nI do not currently have production-ready technical patterns or tech packs. I am therefore specifically looking for a manufacturing partner who can, where required, support the technical development, pattern development, grading and sampling process based on my development briefs and reference images.\n\nAs you specialise in childrenswear development, I would particularly like to understand how you approach fit development and grading across approximately 6M\u20136Y, especially for the smaller baby sizes.\n\nCould you please let me know:\n\n  *   Whether you have experience producing baby and children\u2019s clothing from approximately 6M\u20136Y\n  *   Which existing childrenswear base styles you currently offer in these categories\n  *   Which styles can be fully custom developed if required\n  *   Whether you work with jersey, French Terry and denim\n  *   Your MOQ per style and per colour\n  *   Whether an initial production run of approximately 30\u201350 pieces per style is possible\n  *   Your sample, pattern development and grading costs where applicable\n  *   Whether you offer size sets before bulk production\n  *   Which fabrics and relevant certifications are available, such as GOTS and\/or OEKO-TEX\u00ae\n  *   Whether you can provide custom printing, embroidery, patches, labels and denim washing\n  *   Your approximate lead times from first development sample to bulk production\n\nThe first collection will intentionally launch in a limited quantity, with the intention to scale as the brand grows.\n\nIf this project is suitable for your production capabilities, I would be happy to share our Studio A Kids Brand & Collection Overview and further product information.\n\nThank you and I look forward to hearing from you.\n\nKind regards,\nJodie Guilliams\nFounder \u2014 Studio A Kids",

            "content": "Hello Matilde,\n\nThank you very much for your detailed reply.\n\nThe development capabilities you describe are very much in line with what I am looking for. However, for the first Studio A Kids collection I am intentionally planning a very small initial production run of approximately 30\u201350 pieces per style.\n\nBefore I conclude that the MOQ is too high for this first launch, could you please let me know whether the 250-piece minimum also applies when working from one of your existing childrenswear base styles, rather than developing a fully custom pattern?\n\nIf there are lower MOQ options for existing styles or for an initial trial production, I would be very interested to hear about them.\n\nThank you again.\n\nKind regards,\nJodie Guilliams\nFounder \u2014 Studio A kids founder\n\nOp 7 sep 2026 om 12:14 heeft Matilde Azevedo  het volgende geschreven:\n\n\ufeff Hello Jodie,\n\nThank you for contacting us and sharing details about your exciting new brand, Studio A Kids.
