Branding
​

Picture
Before we start with the actual design, we need to understand the brand and what it stands for. If the brand is not yet in full focus, we can help develop and identify all brand aspects for you.

Market Positioning
​
Picture
Who is your target customer? Where do they shop? Who is your competition, and why would your customer want to buy your design, and not theirs?
We need to answer these basic questions before we take the next step


Price Point
​

based on the brand image, and the market positioning, we can determine the price point and our choice of manufacturing. This also will affect quantities, materials, and cost.

Design & Development
Picture
  • We start with your vision, your concept, and perhaps your designs.
  • Then we help build the collection into categories, and groups that retailers expect.
  • We work on the structures, heels and components, as base for each design.
  • Each design is transferred onto the last and studied in 3D
  • Patterns and technical layout of the designs are prepared for next steps at the factory
  • We then select leathers or fabrics and build the color theme.
  • We can introduce laser cuts, embroidery, or apply accessories and many other secondary operations to give an added value and a distinguished feel.

Prototypes & Samples
Prototypes are not finished samples. They are important, however, because they highlight all technical aspects in the design. They reveal any flaws in the structure, the fitting of the style, and give us a general idea on what the design looks like.

After reviewing the prototypes, and making any needed adjustments, we proceed with samples using final materials, accessories, and finishes. This is when you see the design in its final image.

Production
Choosing the right factory for your design is key. Some factories are specialized in evening shoes, others are great for sneakers. Some factories still work as artisans, and others produce in quantities. What factory is the best match for your project is an important decision to make.

Commercial planning
Fashion Show
Trade Show
Presentation
Private Viewing
Now that your samples are completed, and you've teamed up with the right factory, you are ready to sell your collection.
How would you go about it?
Do you go door to door, meet with store owners and show your product? Do you take a private space in Milan or Paris, and send out invitations. Or, perhaps have a multi brand showroom display your collection? Do you think a fashion show would be best way to break into the market, or maybe a trade show with hundreds or potential buyers?

We will help you navigate through all these choices and help set you up through our network of showrooms and buyers.





Logistics & Quality Control
Before you ship the orders, a second set of eyes would be helpful to make sure the factory did not miss anything. Our team, can dedicate the time to check the final production before it leaves the factory.

If you do not have your logistics in Italy figured out, we can make arrangements in our warehouse for your order. We can also take care of shipping, documents, and even custom clearance and invoicing on your behalf.
