Why choose a professional bra customization factory? 

Our 20 years of experience in bra production has enabled us to accumulate a wealth of industry knowledge. We understand the differences between different markets and the needs of different customers. Personalized customization is more able to highlight brand differentiation and accurately fit the market demand. A professional bra customization factory can sort out the most suitable production plan according to your specific needs. Next, I will introduce the 8 major processes about bra customization.

 Find a suitable cooperative factory

Choosing a bra customization factory is like finding a comrade-in-arms, which must be both reliable and able to cooperate. You can also read this article “7 KEY INDICATORS FOR EVALUATING THE QUALITY OF LINGERIE MANUFACTURERS“, which will surely help you find a suitable cooperative factory.

Remember, look for an experienced factory, not a novice one. An experienced bra factory can better restore your design and avoid the possibility of finished product failure.

 Provide your customization requirements and get a preliminary quotation

After finding a suitable factory, the next step is to get a quote. According to your brand positioning, provide the factory with bra design, fabric requirements, style requirements, function requirements, and accessories requirements. These need to be clarified during the initial communication. We will evaluate the cost based on your requirements.

If you already have a bra sample or reference design, you can provide it to the supplier. Samples can help us understand your design concept and needs more clearly, thereby improving customization efficiency and ensuring a more accurate quotation. If you do not have a ready-made design drawing, our design team can work with you to design according to your requirements and provide you with a sample and quotation.

Proofing according to your requirements

Once the details are finalized, you can ask the supplier to make a bra sample for you. The cost of the sample is generally around $100-200.

Proofing is the process of verifying whether the factory design and craftsmanship are up to standard. It is a key step to ensure that every detail of the product is accurate before mass production.

In addition to the sample fee, the cost of the cup model is equally important. If you want to customize a bra with special functions, you need to determine whether the factory has a matching cup model. If the existing pattern does not meet the design requirements, you need to make a new model, which costs about $150-200. Therefore, it is cost-effective to choose an experienced manufacturer because they have accumulated hundreds of mature pattern libraries, covering basic styles, sports styles, large cup support and other needs.

If you are not satisfied with the sample, you can make a second modification and adjustment to confirm it.

Determine the size and quantity of the large shipment

After you make sure the sample design and workmanship meet your requirements, you can start placing large orders.

At the critical stage of the bra customization process, determining the size and quantity of the bulk product is an important step to ensure smooth production. Accurate size selection is not only related to the comfort and fit of the bra, but also directly affects the production plan and final delivery time. Therefore, at this stage, you need to work closely with our team to ensure that every detail meets your needs.

The factory starts purchasing fabrics and accessories

After you pay the deposit, the factory will start preparing all the fabrics and accessories (including shoulder straps, underwires, back buckles, bra cup lining materials, etc.). The choice of each accessory directly affects the wearing comfort, durability and appearance of the bra. Usually, the required materials are ready for production in about 15 days.

Prenatal samples

Pre-production samples are a key step in ensuring the quality of bra customization. Before mass production, the supplier will make pre-production samples for you to confirm again. Pre-production samples are exactly the same as the final product you receive.

Pre-production samples are to determine whether the supplier meets all your standards. You can check the sewing technology of the product, the color similarity of the fabrics and accessories, the size measurement, etc. to avoid some unnecessary mistakes in the bulk goods.

 Start of mass production

After you approve the sample, the factory will officially enter mass production.

The bra-making process is also very complicated. The fabric is dyed and dried, and workers will cut and trim the fabric in the workshop, and then sew it into bras according to different processes.

The production time of large quantities is about 20-30 days. The specific time depends on the quantity ordered and the complexity of the process.

And the factory will also receive orders from other customers, so it usually takes about 45-60 days from scheduling orders, purchasing fabrics to the complete production process.

Packaging and Delivery

After the mass production is completed, we will pass strict quality checks to avoid the existence of inferior products and ensure that each product is of high quality.

Our team will pack each bra finely to ensure that the product is not damaged during transportation. We personalize the packaging design according to the customer’s needs to ensure the appearance of the bra and the consistency of the brand image. After the packaging is completed, if you have a freight forwarder in China, we will send it to the designated location according to the agreed delivery time and transportation method to ensure on-time delivery.

FAQ

How long does it take from design to delivery?
