1. Client Background
Client Type: Online Fashion Startup
Market: DTC / Online-only launch
Brand Positioning: Affordable premium basics with breathable natural fabrics
Product Category: Linen Clothing Capsule
The client was an early-stage fashion startup preparing its first online launch. With limited inventory budget and no historical sales data, the brand needed a manufacturing partner that could support low-volume production without sacrificing quality or consistency.
Their priority was to test multiple silhouettes and colors quickly, gather customer feedback, and refine future collections based on real sales performance.
2. Project Objective
- Enable a first-market launch with low MOQ per style
- Reduce inventory risk while testing product–market fit
- Support fast sampling for website launch and content creation
- Ensure stable sizing and fabric behavior for online selling
- Create a scalable base for future seasonal expansion
3. Product Overview
Product Types: Linen shirts, relaxed pants, casual dresses
Target Channels: Brand website + social media launch
Season: Spring / Summer
Key Focus: Breathability, comfort, clean finishing, repeatable sizing
4. Custom Requirements
To support a startup-friendly launch, the following OEM requirements were applied:
- Linen fabric selection with controlled shrink and hand feel
- Pre-wash finishing to reduce post-sale size variation
- Pattern making from basic tech packs and reference samples
- Size grading for core sizes with clear measurement tolerance
- Private label trims: woven label, size label, care label
- Clear QC checkpoints for small-batch production
- MOQ: 60 pcs per style
- Total Styles: 4 styles for initial launch
5. Linenwind Low-MOQ Manufacturing Solution
Linenwind designed a startup-oriented workflow: fabric and measurement confirmation first, followed by fast sampling and small-batch bulk production. This approach allowed the client to validate designs without overcommitting inventory.
Two sampling rounds were completed to finalize fit and appearance. Special attention was given to length stability, waist ease, and shoulder balance—key areas that affect online customer satisfaction.
During bulk production, inline inspections focused on workmanship and measurements, ensuring that even at low quantities, quality remained consistent across all pieces.
