Fit comes first
Plus Size Development Is Not a Simple Scale-Up
A suitable plus size project needs a defined measurement chart, target fit and sample review. The buyer’s grading direction, key body measurements and ease requirements should be established before bulk production.
Critical fit inputs
Size range, measurement chart, bust, waist, hip, armhole, sleeve, rise, ease and length expectations.
Sample focus
Fit balance, fabric recovery, construction, size grade, comfort and final measurement confirmation.
