Common questions.

Not sure which service fits? That's what the discovery call is for. In the meantime:

Reach out through the contact form with a few details about your brand and what you're working on. We'll come back to you within 2 business days to set up a discovery call.
Depending on where you are in your calendar, we can often help. Rush turnaround is available at +30%. Mid-season is also a great moment to lock in the following season so you have the time to do it properly.
Most studios deliver prints. We deliver print direction. Two senior designers who have operated at the highest level inside Nordstrom, Anthropologie, Free People, and Victoria's Secret.
Yes — our ideal client is a founder-led contemporary womenswear or swim brand at the $2M–$20M stage with a strong aesthetic but no dedicated print specialist in-house.
Print Development ranges from $650–$1,800 per print. Print Capsule and Seasonal Direction are scoped on a call. Retainers start at $3,500/month. No surprises after you sign.
You do — on receipt of final payment, all rights transfer to you for use in connection with your apparel products worldwide.
