FAQs

How does the material sourcing process actually work for a new design?

It starts with understanding the specific needs of each style, then tapping into a network of vendors to pull multiple fabric and trim options for review. From there, the focus shifts to narrowing those choices down together, with key questions and industry perspective offered along the way to make decisions easier.

Can sourcing help if I want sustainable or eco-friendly materials specifically?

Yes, sustainable fabrics are one of several priorities a sourcing process can be built around, alongside options like luxurious materials for a premium feel or custom trims for something more unique. The goal is to match the sourcing approach to whatever vision the designer has in mind.

What if I’m having trouble deciding between fabric and trim options?

That’s a common part of the process, and having an outside perspective often helps. Posing the right questions and offering an industry viewpoint can surface considerations a designer might not have thought of, making those tougher decisions feel less overwhelming.
