A short code for your style. If your brand is Super Swim and this is your first style, you may call it SS01.
Give the style a name. It is not a must, but it helps you and us describe the style. The note can be a comment on the design or a detail for the sample order.
Only for Ready Designs. Mark the coverage you like: full, medium or cheeky.
Which fabric do you want the sample in? For example Bali Swim fabric, Carvico VITA or Bali Swim Corduroy REPREVE.
If this is your first Custom Design sample and you want to develop fit, we suggest white or black. Ready Designs can be developed in colors and prints, so mark those here.
Most often the same fabric as the outside. If the outside is textured the inside should be flat, for example outside Carvico Pantelleria with inside Carvico VITA, or outside Bali Swim Crinkle with inside Bali Swim Matte. If the outside is printed VITA PL the inside is usually Carvico VITA. You are welcome to change the combination depending on the rest of the collection.
Most frequently the same color as the outside, or a matching tone, for example outside Carvico Ibiza in Bianco with inside Bali Swim Matte in White. Prints on the inside are uncommon because they can make the product more expensive.
Which size do you want your samples in? If you have a fitting model, or you will fit the style yourself, use that size. We recommend sampling all styles in the same size so you get to know our sizing.
