Perfecting your swimwear with precision-crafted samples
Once you’ve selected your styles and paid for your samples, we get straight to work. A dedicated swimwear sample merchant will contact you to confirm your requests before we begin. Your patterns are then created digitally using advanced 2D AutoCAD software, offering far greater precision than traditional paper patterns.
Next, we cut your fabrics, apply your custom heat press logo, and add requested accessories. Each piece undergoes a rigorous three-stage quality check before being tagged, bagged, and photographed for approval.
Once approved, we ship via DHL Express, with delivery to your door in approx three working days.
Note
If your samples need minor tweaks—like adjusting a bikini bottom to be more Brazilian or making a top less revealing—we handle these digitally using our advanced pattern software. However, if there are major discrepancies from your handover, we’ll remake the samples free of charge.
International Body Size
We size and grade according to recognized international body standards. To ensure the best fit for your market, we recommend reviewing our size guide before requesting samples. Upon request, we can adjust sizing up or down by a full or half size—for example, converting our Medium into your Small.

Ordering Samples
Whether you’re ordering custom designs or ready-to-order styles, request samples by sending front and back screenshots, tech packs, or clear line drawings. Simply email or WhatsApp us your styles, fabric colours, and prints, or fill out our sample request form.
Ready-to-order styles can also be purchased directly from our shop. Whatever style code you select will look exactly like what you see in our catalogue in your chosen colours and prints, making sampling unnecessary (unless required for a photo shoot or fitting).
Many brands skip sampling, placing a bulk order, saving both time and money.
If you’d like to discuss your sample ideas or clarify any details, schedule a callback with a swimwear sampling specialist.
Selecting Colours
We offer a variety of colours available from stock:
Samples are usually assembled in stock colours to expedite the process. Choosing stock colours over imported custom options ensures a smoother transition to bulk production. Additionally, stock colours come with no MOQ allowing more colours to be added.
Adding Custom Print
Our digital prints on American recycled Nylon are customer favorites, offering the softest hand feel across our fabric range. Printing overseas digitally results in superior quality, though it requires additional time compared to Bali printing.
If time is limited, we print using Vita PL fabric.
Accessorizing
The right accessories can make all the difference in boosting sales. We offer metal accessories in five colours. We notice brands who select their accessories that complement their swimwear, see increased sales.
We also specialize in adding cups, wires, and boning to enhance support and structure with ease.
Graphics & Layouts
For custom branding, including heat press logos and accessories, we require vector-format graphics in EPS, PDF, CDR, or TIFF (300 dpi, repeatable, and to scale). If you need assistance, our graphic designers are available to help—often at no extra cost.
Important: If you want samples with custom heat-press branding, we need your artwork and layout before sampling begins.
While your samples are in production, use this time to plan your bulk order.
If you’re considering adding custom colors, digital prints, or branded accessories, now is the time to prepare and factor in production timelines.
