What skirts do we manufacture?

Knit and woven skirts cut to your block — lengths, slits, waistbands and linings all to spec, with fabrics matched to your tops for coordinated looks. As a custom skirt manufacturer we run both jersey styles from our knit lines and tailored woven styles from our shirt and trouser lines, so a single collection can share one fit standard.

  • Pencil and A-line skirts in twill, plaid and suiting fabrics with invisible zips
  • Pleated midi skirts in satin-back crepe, twill or polyester with heat-set pleats
  • Jersey and rib mini, midi and maxi skirts with elasticated waistbands
  • Wrap, slit and asymmetric styles for fashion capsules
  • Plus-size programs on dedicated blocks — see plus-size manufacturing

Running styles in the product catalog — a plaid pencil skirt and an olive pleated midi skirt — show the construction level we hold on woven skirts.

Which fabrics do we use for skirts?

Jersey, rib, twill and satin-back crepe from 180 to 300 GSM, dyed to match your tops. Pleated styles need a fabric that holds a heat-set pleat, which is why polyester and polyester blends dominate that category; cotton twill and plaid suit structured pencil and A-line shapes; jersey and rib give the drape and stretch a knit skirt needs. Every fabric is shrinkage-tested before cutting because a lined skirt whose shell and lining shrink at different rates will twist. Custom colours and prints are developed through fabric sourcing.

  • 180–220 GSM jersey and rib — knit skirts that pair with tees and tanks
  • 240–300 GSM twill, plaid and suiting — pencil, A-line and structured styles
  • Satin-back crepe and polyester — pleated and fluid midi skirts
  • Linings: polyester taffeta or jersey to spec

Which construction details do we hold on every skirt?

Elasticated and fixed waistbands, invisible zips and clean-finished hems come as standard. Fixed waistbands are interlined and topstitched; slits are bar-tacked at the top; linings are attached at the waist and hang free or are bagged out at the hem to spec; heat-set pleats are pressed after sewing so they stay crisp through the first washes.

  • Waistbands: elasticated, fixed with hook-and-bar or button, contour or straight
  • Closures: invisible zips, exposed zips, buttons or wrap ties
  • Hems: blind-stitched, coverstitched, rolled or raw-edge to spec
  • Grading to your size chart through pattern making and grading

How do prints, embroidery and branding work on skirts?

All-over prints are engineered before cutting so motifs land where they should across panels; placement embroidery and prints are sampled on the actual skirt through printing and embroidery partners we audit. Woven waistband labels, care labels and hangtags are applied in-house through private label.

What are the MOQ, sample time and lead time for skirts?

MOQ is 50 pieces per style across sizes. Samples take 8–15 days through sample development and bulk ships 24–30 days after approval, assuming fabric and lining in stock or reserved. Custom prints and yarn-dyes add mill time, which we state in the quote.

Which quality checks run before a skirt ships?

  • Fabric: shell and lining shrinkage tested together so the two move alike
  • Sewing: invisible zip alignment, waistband interlining, slit bartacks and pleat setting on every bundle
  • Measurement: waist, hip and length on the size set; AQL 2.5 on bulk
  • Finishing: hem evenness, press quality and hanger-pack spec at final inspection

How do you start a skirt program with us?

Send a tech pack or a reference skirt with notes on length, waist and closure. We reply within five hours with fabric options, a sample plan and a bulk estimate. Skirts pair with shirts, t-shirts and our dress line in womenswear capsules. Request a quote to begin.
