Knit Dresses and Leggings

Jersey dresses, leggings and loungewear in stretch and viscose blends, where recovery matters as much as the first fit.

Product Detail

Stretch Is Easy, Recovery Is Not

Any stretch fabric fits well for the first hour. The question is whether it still fits at the end of the day, and whether it comes back to shape after washing - which is a function of the elastane quality and the knitting, not of the pattern.

We test stretch and recovery on bulk fabric before approval, specify seam construction that moves with the fabric instead of restricting it, and check growth at knee and seat after wear and wash simulation rather than only on the measurement table.

Quality Control

What We Control

Shade & Lot Control

Dye lot management and shade banding so cartons within a delivery do not vary visibly.

Shrinkage & Spirality

Washed shrinkage and spirality tested and corrected in pattern, the most common knit measurement failure.

GSM Consistency

Fabric weight checked lot by lot — GSM drift changes both handfeel and fabric cost.

Print & Wash Durability

Print adhesion, crocking and wash-fastness tested to the buyer’s standard before bulk approval.
