A buyer’s guide

What can SALATI develop for your label?

SALATI supports custom apparel development from a tech pack, sketch, reference image or physical sample. The brief can cover fabric, fit, construction, artwork, washes, trims, labels and packaging. Agree the development scope and review a sample before confirming the production specification.

Start with what is decided and identify what needs a recommendation. A complete tech pack and a reference-led project can require different amounts of pattern development, sourcing and sampling. The quotation should identify the work included.
