The basics
Why swimwear tech packs are different
Swimwear has almost no ease, so small measurement errors show immediately. Tech packs must specify lining, cup and support construction, elastic type and tension, ruching ratios, adjustable ties and hardware, and fabrics that resist chlorine, salt and UV. We document every one of these so fit and durability hold up after sampling.
What we design
Triangle, bandeau and underwire bikinis
One-pieces, high-leg and cheeky cuts
Ruched and adjustable styles
Men’s swim shorts with liners
Rash guards and cover-ups
01Construction & lining
Support without bulk.
Lining, cups and pads, elastic channels, ruching and tie construction drawn and specified so the factory knows exactly how each piece is built.
What you receive
Technical flats
Lining and cup specification
Elastic type and placement
Hardware and trims
02Fit system
Adjustable where it matters.
Adjustable straps, ties and sliding elements designed so one pattern flatters more bodies, with points of measure suited to swimwear’s negative ease.
What you receive
Points of measure
Adjustability detail
Size grading
Fit comments after sampling
03Materials
Built for water.
Fabric composition, weight and finish, with notes on chlorine and UV resistance, print or solid colorways, and lining color matching.
Yes. See our Ruched Triangle Bikini case study for an adjustable bikini taken through visual direction, construction, fit and production definition.
Do swimwear tech packs include lining and cup detail?
Yes - lining, cups or pads, elastic type and placement, and any ruching or adjustable ties are drawn and specified in the tech pack.
How long does a tech pack take?
A complete tech pack typically takes 10–15 working days and fashion flats take 5–10 working days, depending on the complexity of the garment and the clarity of the design brief. We confirm the timeline before work starts.
How much does it cost?
Every project is quoted individually. The quote is based on your brief, the actual scope of work and how urgently you need it, and is clearly communicated and agreed before any work begins - no surprises.
Do you work with US brands?
Yes - most of our clients are US-based founders and brands. We work remotely in English, write measurements in inches (or centimeters if your factory prefers), and deliver tech packs any factory worldwide can build from. We work with brands all across the globe.
Will you sign an NDA?
Yes. We sign NDAs before you share design details, and we never publish client names or unreleased products without your permission.
How quickly do you reply to enquiries?
Within one working day. Tell us what you are building and we will come back with questions and the most useful next step.
Can you help find a manufacturer?
Yes. Beyond design and tech packs we introduce vetted factory partners matched to your category and MOQ, coordinate sampling and validate samples against the spec.
