Start with the piece you want to make
A useful brief can begin with a sketch, an existing sample, or a few reference images. Explain who will wear the piece, the intended style, and the product category. You do not need to solve every technical detail before the first conversation.
Describe the visible details
List the choices that affect what a customer will notice: silhouette, approximate size, surface finish, color direction, stones or decorative elements, and where a brand mark might appear. Mark each item as confirmed or open for discussion.
Include the practical requirements
Share your target market, approximate order quantity, preferred packaging, and target launch window if known. These details help a manufacturing partner identify questions to resolve during sampling.
Review a sample before production
A sample is the point to check appearance and construction against the agreed brief. Keep written notes on changes so that the approved version becomes the reference for the next production discussion.
Questions to start with.
Do I need a finished design file?
A sketch or reference can be enough to start a discussion. The information needed for production depends on the design and the agreed development process.
What should I decide before requesting a sample?
Identify the product type, intended look, important details, and any known quantity or timing requirements. Other specifications can be clarified with your manufacturing partner.
