Weekend Brunch Pleated Dress with Sleeveless — Off-the-Shoulder in Recycled Polyester (rPET)

Weekend Brunch Pleated Dress with Sleeveless — Off-the-Shoulder in Recycled Polyester (rPET)

This Weekend Brunch Pleated Dress with Sleeveless — Off-the-Shoulder in Recycled Polyester (rPET) is developed for brands that need one dress to stay identical across seasons, colourways and reorders. The specification below — Recycled Polyester (rPET) body, Off-the-Shoulder neckline, sleeveless and a midi length hem — is written into the tech pack before sampling starts, so the approved sample and the bulk shipment are the same garment.

Built in Recycled Polyester (rPET), the cloth behaves like this: selected for handle, drape and wash stability in repeat production. We confirm the fabric lot, run lab dips for your shade and keep a reference swatch against every future order, which is what stops the drift most private-label programmes suffer after the second reorder.

Design Details

• Silhouette — Bodycon cut, balanced for movement and for how the dress sits when the wearer is seated.
• Neckline — Off-the-Shoulder, finished clean on the inside so it holds its line after washing.
• Sleeve — Sleeveless, graded across the full size set so armhole depth stays proportional.
• Detail — Frill Shoulder Line, placed to specification and costed per position.
• Length — Midi Length, adjustable in 2 cm steps from the base spec.
• Colourway — Soft Black, Pantone TCX matched with lab dips before cutting.

Fabric Notes

We source Recycled Polyester (rPET) against your price target, then confirm weight, shrinkage and hand feel before a metre is cut. Because the bulk lot is reserved at sampling stage, the approved sample reflects what the finished shipment will feel like — not a substitute cloth. Wash-test results for shrinkage and colour fastness are recorded on the first bulk lot and kept as the reference for reorders.

Size & Fit Guide

Measurements below are garment measurements in centimetres with standard ease for midi length. Send us your own block and we grade to it, including height-adjusted lengths and regional size conversions for EU, UK and US charts.

Fit notes: the Bodycon holds its shape best with 3% elastane in the shell; for pleated dress we recommend a size-set fit session before grading, so the waist placement sits correctly on the shortest and tallest sizes in the run.

Production Process

1. Tech pack review and fabric confirmation against your target price
2. Lab dips for Soft Black plus trims and hardware sourced to match
3. Pattern making from your block, then grading across the size set
4. First prototype in Recycled Polyester (rPET) with the Frill Shoulder Line detail applied
5. Fit session, revision, then a pre-production sample in bulk fabric
6. Bulk cutting with marker efficiency controlled to limit shade variation
7. All-Over Sublimation and finishing under in-line inspection
8. Final AQL 2.5 inspection, pressing and packing to your barcode specification

Styling & Occasions

Built for Weekend Brunch — relaxed ease with enough structure to look considered. Typical customer profiles for this specification:

• Boutique labels building a signature dress silhouette that reorders each season
• Capsule collections where one block is developed across several fabrics
• Private-label sellers needing a reliable size run with consistent grading
• Resort and cruise collections where crease recovery matters more than weight

Styling: wear it alone with flat sandals for day, or with a structured layer and heels for evening. The pleated dress reads casual or formal depending on the accessories, which is why it sits well in a small capsule range.

Quality Control

Every bulk order is checked against the approved sample for shade, hand feel, measurements and workmanship. We record shrinkage, colour fastness and seam strength on the first bulk lot and hold the data as the reference for reorders, so pleated dress batches stay comparable over time. Inspection photos and the measurement report are sent before the balance payment is due.

FAQ

Which compliance documents can you provide?

We can arrange WRAP documentation and third-party test reports for the relevant market, including REACH and CPSIA declarations when needed.

How does shipping work?

We quote EXW, FOB, CIF and DDP. Bulk normally ships by consolidated sea freight, with air or express options when a launch date is at risk.

What is the minimum order quantity?

This dress programme starts at 50 pieces per style and colourway. Sizes can be split across a size set, and for a first order we can often mix colourways so you can test demand before committing to one shade.

Can you develop my own pattern?

Yes. Send a tech pack, a reference garment or even clear photos, and we will draft the block, grade it across your size set and produce a fit sample before bulk.

How long does sampling take?

A first prototype in Recycled Polyester (rPET) is typically ready 10 working days after the tech pack is confirmed. Revisions add roughly 3 days each, and we send fit photos at every stage.
