How to use these notes
Trend cards on this hub are buyer orientation for the next development window — fabric hand, silhouette families and colour stories — not a substitute for a tech pack. Pair each note with a library sample on a named base, then lock colour, opacity and recovery on PPS before bulk.
Season language changes faster than factory gates. Use trends to shortlist capsules; use the garment library and Material System to decide what can actually ship.
What stays constant while trends move
- Standard garment MOQ 150 pcs per style and colour; library trial from 100 when the style already exists
- Samples US$50-100 / garment piece in 7-9 working days on library fabric paths
- Named bases — PowerForm, AirTouch, AquaForm, CloudTouch — for speed when the hand is already proven
- ZF references for surface, fibre and GSM direction when you need differentiation beyond a named base
- Legal entity: DONGGUAN ZIESHINE APPAREL CO.,LTD. (ZIESHINE) — Dongguan cut-and-sew OEM/ODM
Recommended reading order
- Open the SS27 & AW27/28 Development Guide for capsule gates (fabric, product, opacity, MOQ, sample).
- Read MOQ: style, colour and fabric so garment MOQ is not confused with fabric MCQ.
- Read Sample cost explained for the published US$50-100 range.
- Shortlist silhouettes in Products and fabrics in Material Library, then brief Export desk.
FOB is quoted per programme under NDA — this hub does not publish a sitewide price list. Trends inform direction; samples and PPS decide production.
