How We Work
Our Six-Stage Process
Every piece we make goes through the same six steps. A single hair clip or a whole new collection, it doesn’t matter. If we wouldn’t wear it, it doesn’t leave our hands.
-
Trend Research & Concept
We start by watching what people love, wear and talk about right now. Then we pick the ideas worth turning into your next favorite piece.
-
CAD Design
Every idea becomes a detailed digital design first. That way, we get the shape, size and details just right before anything is made.
-
Sampling & Approval
Next comes a real sample, usually within 14 to 30 days. If it’s not quite right, we fix it. Nothing moves forward until it’s perfect.
-
Material Check & Testing
Before production, we test every material for color, quality and safety. It’s much better to catch a problem now than in your hands.
-
Production & Inline Inspection
Most pieces take 25 to 45 days to make. Our team checks them throughout production, not just at the end, so every detail stays sharp.
-
Final Inspection & Delivery
One final check before it leaves us. Then it’s packed with care and on its way to you.
Certified & Audited
Standards you can hold us to
Our partner factories are checked by our own team and work to U.S. and European quality standards. The certificates and reports behind that are here for your buying, compliance and QA teams to review.
-

-
