Fabric Development
Choose materials against the brief.
Fabric development begins with the intended use, hand feel, weight and care routine. Review composition and construction alongside availability, color matching and any performance evidence required.

Decisions to resolve early
Evaluate the fabric after care, not only from a swatch. Shrinkage, shade change, stretch recovery and surface appearance can alter the finished garment.
What approval should cover
A fabric supplier statement is not automatically evidence for a finished garment claim. Agree which tests are needed and whether they apply to the fabric, trims or complete garment.
