FASHION AND SAMPLING ATELIER    

Haute Couture & High-Quality Ready-to-Wear Consultancy

With extensive experience in Switzerland, Japan, and Paris, SHCD brings deep expertise from the world of Haute Couture and Prêt-à-Porter (RTW) to support brands in turning concepts into commercially viable, high-quality fashion products.

We guide our clients through every stage of the creative process—from design to development and manufacturing—ensuring excellence at each step.

We invest time in thoroughly researching and understanding the brand’s history, values, and visual language. By listening to the stories of the people who wear the brand and analyzing their connection to its DNA and target market, we help our clients develop a clear and authentic creative direction. This approach allows us to deliver designs and collections that align with both brand identity and consumer expectations.

Design Consulting – From Sampling to Bulk Production

With over 20 years of international fashion industry experience, we offer comprehensive guidance through the entire sampling and production process:

1. First Sampling – Mock-Up

Initial design and pattern development are carried out in our atelier. A fit model is used to review and refine the first prototype.

2. Second Sampling – Fabric Sample

The design is recreated using the final fabric selected for production. A second fitting ensures functionality, fit, and aesthetic alignment with the chosen material.

3. Third Sampling – Salesman Sample

This final pre-production sample reflects the finished product. It is used for sales presentations and buyer previews before initiating bulk production.
