SAMPLE REFERENCES / CUSTOM CONVERSATIONS
Not sure how to describe your idea? Start with a shape, a texture or a fit detail. Use these garment references to explain what you like, what you would change and what needs further discussion.
References for discussion, not a stock list or a verified supply catalogue. A photograph does not establish material specifications or available production options. Other apparel ideas are welcome.

CHOOSE YOUR STARTING POINT
For an OEM discussion, bring a design, sample or marked image. Identify what must stay, what should change and which specifications still need review.
Discuss an OEM brief ↗For an ODM discussion, describe the intended wearer, use and overall direction. Review the development support available, revision scope and responsibilities before proceeding.
Discuss development needs ↗Availability is a separate question. Confirm the actual garment, options and supply conditions; a reference image does not establish stock or an orderable style.
Ask about availability ↗These references do not define the full scope of possible enquiries. Bring a different garment, intended use or early idea for a project-specific discussion.
