Prepare a clear development brief without leaving measurements, construction or logo decisions to guesswork.
A useful tech pack tells the supplier what to make and tells you what to inspect. It does not need decorative pages, but it needs consistent decisions. Assign a style code and version number. Include front and back views or annotated sketches, the intended activity, target customer and a short explanation of the product’s priorities.
List the main fabric, secondary fabric, lining, elastics, cups, thread, labels and packaging components where applicable. Specify composition, weight and finish when known, or clearly mark what you need the supplier to propose. Add material references and colour standards. A screenshot of another brand can communicate inspiration, but it does not grant rights to copy protected artwork or designs.
Provide a base-size measurement table with diagrams showing where each dimension is taken. Agree tolerances with the supplier based on the garment and measurement method; do not insert a universal tolerance without discussion. State the intended size range and request a grading review. Your body-size chart and finished-garment measurements are different documents and should be labelled clearly.
Mark seam positions, stitch requirements, waistband construction, pocket dimensions, cup openings and finishing details. For each logo or label, include artwork files, dimensions, colour and placement. Clarify whether branding should stretch with the fabric. Check the result on a sample after wear and washing before deciding that a method is suitable.
Record changes with dates and version numbers, and ask the supplier to acknowledge the current version. Attach approved sample photos and note any remaining exceptions. Before production, confirm the bill of materials, colour references, size allocation and packaging instructions together. A clean revision trail avoids a correct garment made to an outdated brief.
Yes. Explain which information is missing and treat the first price as provisional until specifications are confirmed.
It can be a starting point, but it must be reviewed against your target customer and approved fit.
