FAQ

How are dress fabrics selected for this hub?
We group fabrics whose end-use tags include dress, skirt, eveningwear, bridal and related garment types from mill and sourcing data.
Should I start with a color card or a cut sample?
Start with a Swatch Box while comparing shades and handfeel. Upgrade to a 1–10 m cut sample when you need cloth for drape or sewing tests.
What does sampling cost?
The physical mill color cards are free; the Swatch Box fee covers coordination and worldwide express shipping — $69 for up to 5 swatches or $119 for up to 10, max 10 fabrics per box. Cut samples are $4 service fee per fabric plus shipping at cost (1–10 m).
