From First Sample to Dress Production

Close the sample decisions

Record the final measurements, silhouette, construction and finish. Identify the actual silky, sheer, organza or sequin fabric used. Resolve open comments so a production team does not have to choose between conflicting versions.

Check the supply for the order

A sample may use a small available quantity that does not establish bulk supply. Confirm color, material availability, size breakdown and any permitted variation before treating the sample as a production commitment.

Confirm the handover

Agree packing, labels, review requirements and destination. Document any change since the sample approval and assess its cost or timing effect. Production should follow the accepted specification rather than a mixture of earlier references.
